What "at risk" means for the buildings here

5,549Total buildings
40.4%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
59.6%Minimal exposure

59.6% of Moorestown-Lenola's 5,549 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 40.4% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself. At 5,549 buildings, this is a substantial built environment, so the shares below describe a real population of structures, not a handful of edge cases.
