New Holland, OH
New Holland wildfire risk explained
New Holland's 557 buildings earn a 4th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, New Holland's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 4th percentile nationally.
New Holland's building exposure, zone by zone
63.6% of New Holland's 557 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 36.5% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.
How New Holland compares
Within Ohio, New Holland ranks higher (20th percentile) than it does nationally (4th) — one of the more fire-exposed places in a state that, overall, scores lower than that. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, New Holland ranks 30,395 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 16,463 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 1,011 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
New Holland and the insurance market
At the 4th national percentile, New Holland rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Even with 63.6% of New Holland 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
New Holland's 4th-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 New Holland, see the exposure-zones guide.
