How exposed is Rickreall to wildfire?

Low
6thpercentile nationally

USFS scores Rickreall at the 6th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 82 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Rickreall at the 7th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

Where Rickreall's buildings actually sit

82Total buildings
8.5%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
91.5%Minimal exposure

USFS classifies 91.5% of Rickreall's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 8.5% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.

Where Rickreall ranks

Rickreall scores 6th nationally and 0th within Oregon — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Rickreall ranks 29,796 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 29,817 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 420 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.

Shopping for coverage in Rickreall

Rickreall's 6th-percentile score lands in Oregon, the only two states requiring a wildfire disclosure at sale. Oregon's own hazard map feeds directly into that disclosure requirement. The disclosure-law guide covers what it requires.

What would actually reduce this score

With 91.5% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Rickreall 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

Rickreall's 6th-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 Rickreall, see the exposure-zones guide.
