Rocky Mountain, OK
Rocky Mountain, OK's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Rocky Mountain sits at the 94th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 465 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Rocky Mountain at the 96th national percentile — 2 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Rocky Mountain's building exposure, zone by zone
100% of Rocky Mountain's 465 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 465 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 0% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 0% are Minimal.
Where Rocky Mountain ranks
Inside Oklahoma, Rocky Mountain sits at just the 71st percentile even though it scores 94th 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, Rocky Mountain ranks 1,961 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 17,982 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 244 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Rocky Mountain
Rocky Mountain's 94th-percentile, very high rating is the kind of score behind a broader national pattern: insurers pulling back from the highest wildfire-risk markets, non-renewing or declining new policies outright, most visibly in California. Shopping around, not assuming automatic renewal, tends to matter here.
Hardening a home in Rocky Mountain
With 100% of Rocky Mountain 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.
