Panorama Village against the rest of the country

Inside Texas, Panorama Village sits at just the 21st percentile even though it scores 65th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it.

Within Texas alone, it ranks 1,426 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.

Panorama Village and the insurance market

Panorama Village's 65th-percentile, high rating is the kind of score behind a broader national pattern: insurers pulling back from the highest wildfire-risk markets, non-renewing or declining new policies outright, most visibly in California. Shopping around, not assuming automatic renewal, tends to matter here.

What would actually reduce this score

With 50.8% of Panorama Village 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.
