Pembroke Park, FL
How exposed is Pembroke Park to wildfire?
Pembroke Park sits at the 58th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 2,853 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Pembroke Park at the 65th national percentile — 7 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
USFS classifies 99.4% of Pembroke Park's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 0.6% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.
How Pembroke Park compares
Pembroke Park's 58th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 11th ranking inside Florida does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 47 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Pembroke Park ranks 13,264 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 5,656 by building count (1 is largest). Within Florida alone, it ranks 847 of 955 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Florida on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
At the 58th national percentile, Pembroke Park rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Hardening a home in Pembroke Park
Pembroke Park's 99.4% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.
