Odell, OR
Odell, OR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Odell lands at the 97th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a figure built from its 1,082 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Odell at the 98th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Odell's building exposure, zone by zone
53.4% of Odell's 1,082 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 46.6% Direct and 0% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone.
Where Odell ranks
There's little gap between Odell's 97th national percentile and its 90th percentile inside Oregon, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Odell ranks 954 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 11,396 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 42 of 420 places by risk.

Hardening a home in Odell
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Odell (53.4% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
More on how this number was built
Odell's 97th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what indirect exposure implies beyond Odell, see the exposure-zones guide.
