Pineview, GA
How exposed is Pineview to wildfire?
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Pineview at the 54th national percentile for risk to structures, modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a score built from 296 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Pineview at the 54th percentile, close to its 54th-percentile risk score.
Where Pineview's buildings actually sit
66.2% of Pineview's 296 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 33.8% Direct and 0% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone.
How Pineview compares
Pineview ranks lower within Georgia (11th percentile statewide) than its 54th national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Pineview ranks 14,427 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 21,728 by building count (1 is largest). Within Georgia alone, it ranks 596 of 669 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Georgia on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Pineview
Pineview's elevated wildfire rating (54th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Pineview's 66.2% Indirect-exposure share points at embers, not flame contact, as the main pathway — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing rank ahead of defensible space here. Detail in the home-hardening guide.
