Quentin, PA
Quentin, PA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Quentin at the 18th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 360 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Quentin at the 16th percentile, close to its 18th-percentile risk score.
Quentin's building exposure, zone by zone
USFS classifies 51.9% of Quentin's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 32.5% Direct and 15.6% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.
Where Quentin ranks
Quentin's risk sits at a similar level relative to Pennsylvania (19th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (18th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Quentin ranks 25,887 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 20,067 by building count (1 is largest). Within Pennsylvania alone, it ranks 1,617 of 1,991 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Pennsylvania on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Quentin's low wildfire rating (18th 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.
What would actually reduce this score
With 51.9% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Quentin gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
More on how this number was built
Quentin's 18th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Quentin, see the exposure-zones guide.
