Nolanville, TX's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Very High
87thpercentile nationally

USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Nolanville at the 87th national percentile for risk to structures, in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a score built from 2,182 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Nolanville at the 86th national percentile — 1 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

24.7%Direct exposure

0.7%Minimal exposure

Indirect exposure is dominant in Nolanville (74.6% of 2,182 buildings): far enough from burnable vegetation to avoid flame contact, close enough for wind-blown embers. Only 24.7% sit in the Direct zone.

Nolanville against the rest of the country

Nolanville's risk sits at a similar level relative to Texas (78th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (87th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way.

Within Texas alone, it ranks 405 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.

Shopping for coverage in Nolanville

At the 87th percentile nationally, Nolanville carries the very high rating that has pushed some carriers to limit new business in similarly-scored places elsewhere in the country. Worth comparing quotes rather than assuming last year's renewal terms still apply.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

Nolanville's 74.6% Indirect-exposure share points at embers, not flame contact, as the main pathway — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing rank ahead of defensible space here. Detail in the home-hardening guide.

Where Nolanville's figures come from

Nolanville's 87th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Nolanville's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
