Plush, OR
How exposed is Plush to wildfire?
USFS scores Plush at the 92nd national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally), a figure built from 75 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Plush's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 92nd percentile nationally.
Where Plush's buildings actually sit
74.7% of Plush's 75 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 56 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 25.3% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 0% are Minimal.
How Plush compares
Plush's risk sits at a similar level relative to Oregon (78th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (92nd) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Plush ranks 2,500 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 30,105 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 95 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Plush
Because Plush is in Oregon, a wildfire-hazard disclosure is legally required before a sale closes here — unusual nationally, since only these two states mandate it. Full detail in the disclosure-law guide.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 74.7% of Plush in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Every one of the two percentiles behind Plush's 2,500-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. For more on what direct exposure implies beyond Plush, see the exposure-zones guide.
