Pinhook Corner, OK
Pinhook Corner wildfire risk explained
Pinhook Corner sits at the 97th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 170 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Pinhook Corner's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 98th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
USFS classifies 100% of Pinhook Corner's buildings as Direct exposure, higher than its 0% Indirect share and far above its 0% Minimal share — a profile where 170 structures sit close enough to vegetation that lot clearing matters most.
