Rockport, WA
Rockport, WA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Rockport's 105 buildings earn a 62nd-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.)
Separately from the risk score above, Rockport's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 57th percentile nationally.
Rockport's building exposure, zone by zone
USFS puts 50.5% of Rockport's 105 buildings in the Indirect exposure zone, versus 49.5% Direct and 0% Minimal — a place where the fire doesn't need to reach the structure directly for embers to.
Rockport against the rest of the country
There's little gap between Rockport's 62nd national percentile and its 68th percentile inside Washington, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Rockport ranks 12,024 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,825 by building count (1 is largest). Within Washington alone, it ranks 202 of 628 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Washington on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Rockport
Rockport's high rating (62nd percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.
What would actually reduce this score
Because 50.5% of Rockport's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.
Where Rockport's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Rockport's 12,024-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Rockport's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
