How exposed is Millersburg to wildfire?

Low
13thpercentile nationally

USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Millersburg at the 13th national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 1,733 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Separately from the risk score above, Millersburg's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 16th percentile nationally.

What "at risk" means for the buildings here

1,733Total buildings
28.4%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
71.6%Minimal exposure

USFS classifies 71.6% of Millersburg's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 28.4% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.

Where Millersburg ranks

There's little gap between Millersburg's 13th national percentile and its 6th percentile inside Oregon, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Millersburg ranks 27,433 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 8,291 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 396 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

Millersburg's 13th-percentile score lands in Oregon, the only two states requiring a wildfire disclosure at sale. Oregon's own hazard map feeds directly into that disclosure requirement. The disclosure-law guide covers what it requires.

What would actually reduce this score

With 71.6% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Millersburg gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.

More on how this number was built

Millersburg's 13th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Millersburg, see the exposure-zones guide.
