55thpercentile nationally

USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts North Enid at the 55th national percentile for risk to structures, modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a score built from 638 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Separately from the risk score above, North Enid's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 52nd percentile nationally.

How North Enid compares

Shopping for coverage in North Enid

North Enid's elevated wildfire rating (55th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

With 77.9% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, North Enid gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.

Where North Enid's figures come from

North Enid's 55th-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 North Enid's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
