Montalvin Manor, CA
Montalvin Manor, CA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Montalvin Manor at the 45th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (modestly above the national average for wildfire risk), a figure built from 943 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Montalvin Manor's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 47th percentile nationally.
Where Montalvin Manor's buildings actually sit
Only 0% of Montalvin Manor's 943 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 100% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
Montalvin Manor against the rest of the country
Montalvin Manor ranks lower within California (8th percentile statewide) than its 45th national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high.

Within California alone, it ranks 1,453 of 1,570 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for California on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Montalvin Manor

Hardening a home in Montalvin Manor
Even with 100% of Montalvin Manor outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones, basic hardening — gutter maintenance, ember-resistant vents — is inexpensive relative to the regional burn-probability risk noted above. Details in the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Montalvin Manor's 45th-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 Montalvin Manor, see the exposure-zones guide.
