Rexland Acres, CA
How exposed is Rexland Acres to wildfire?
Rexland Acres's 1,328 buildings earn a 74th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — well above the national norm for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Rexland Acres at the 78th national percentile — 3 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Rexland Acres's building exposure, zone by zone
84% of Rexland Acres's 1,328 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 9.2% Direct and 6.8% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone.
Where Rexland Acres ranks
Inside California, Rexland Acres sits at just the 32nd percentile even though it scores 74th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Rexland Acres ranks 8,058 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 9,943 by building count (1 is largest). Within California alone, it ranks 1,065 of 1,570 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for California on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Rexland Acres sits in California, one of two states that legally require a wildfire-risk disclosure at sale. California's FAIR Plan, the state's insurer of last resort, ended 2025 with 668,609 residential policies after adding 21,859 in Q4 alone — the kind of market shift a 74th-percentile score like Rexland Acres's can end up mattering for.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Rexland Acres's 84% 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.
