Okeene, OK
How exposed is Okeene to wildfire?
Okeene sits at the 31st 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 885 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 Okeene at the 26th percentile, close to its 31st-percentile risk score.
Where Okeene's buildings actually sit
USFS classifies 92.2% of Okeene's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 7.8% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.
Where Okeene ranks
Okeene ranks lower within Oklahoma (1st percentile statewide) than its 31st national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Okeene ranks 21,753 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 12,866 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 822 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Okeene
Okeene's moderate rating (31st percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Hardening a home in Okeene
With 92.2% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Okeene gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
