Olmito and Olmito, TX's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Olmito and Olmito lands at the 95th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a figure built from its 97 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Olmito and Olmito at the 96th percentile, close to its 95th-percentile risk score.
Where Olmito and Olmito's buildings actually sit
Most of Olmito and Olmito's buildings (56.7%) sit in the Indirect zone, where wind-blown embers rather than flame front are the mechanism USFS is scoring — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing are the interventions this pattern favors, more than defensible space alone.
