North San Pedro, TX
How exposed is North San Pedro to wildfire?
North San Pedro sits at the 35th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 291 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts North San Pedro at the 37th percentile, close to its 35th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
100% of North San Pedro's 291 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 0% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.

Shopping for coverage in North San Pedro
North San Pedro's moderate wildfire rating (35th 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 100% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, North San Pedro gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
