Pemberville, OH
Pemberville, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Pemberville's 801 buildings earn a 2nd-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Pemberville at the 2nd national percentile — 0 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Pemberville's buildings actually sit
Pemberville rates 92.9% Minimal exposure against just 7.1% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 801 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
How Pemberville compares
Pemberville's risk sits at a similar level relative to Ohio (15th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (2nd) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Pemberville ranks 30,808 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 13,624 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 1,078 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Pemberville and the insurance market
Pemberville's low rating (2nd 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 Pemberville
With 92.9% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Pemberville gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
