Olivet, TN
Olivet, TN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Olivet's 855 buildings earn a 63rd-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — well above the national norm for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Olivet's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 66th percentile nationally.
Where Olivet's buildings actually sit
Of Olivet's 855 counted buildings, 93.5% carry Direct exposure and only 0% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.
Where Olivet ranks
Olivet's risk sits at a similar level relative to Tennessee (55th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (63rd) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Olivet ranks 11,612 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 13,131 by building count (1 is largest). Within Tennessee alone, it ranks 225 of 502 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Tennessee on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Olivet
At the 63rd percentile nationally, Olivet carries the 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
With 93.5% of Olivet in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
