Peoria, OR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Low
10thpercentile nationally

Peoria's 85 buildings earn a 10th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Peoria at the 11th percentile, close to its 10th-percentile risk score.

Peoria's building exposure, zone by zone

85Total buildings
9.4%Direct exposure
90.6%Indirect exposure
0%Minimal exposure

Indirect exposure is dominant in Peoria (90.6% of 85 buildings): far enough from burnable vegetation to avoid flame contact, close enough for wind-blown embers. Only 9.4% sit in the Direct zone.

Peoria against the rest of the country

There's little gap between Peoria's 10th national percentile and its 3rd percentile inside Oregon, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Peoria ranks 28,503 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 29,704 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 409 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.

Peoria and the insurance market

Peoria's 10th-percentile score lands in Oregon, the only two states requiring a wildfire disclosure at sale. Oregon's own hazard map feeds directly into that disclosure requirement. The disclosure-law guide covers what it requires.

What would actually reduce this score

Because 90.6% of Peoria's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.

More on how this number was built

Peoria's 10th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what indirect exposure implies beyond Peoria, see the exposure-zones guide.
