Roeville, FL
How exposed is Roeville to wildfire?
Roeville sits at the 84th 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 458 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Roeville at the 85th national percentile — 2 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Roeville's building exposure, zone by zone
USFS classifies 94.3% of Roeville's buildings as Direct exposure, higher than its 5.7% Indirect share and far above its 0% Minimal share — a profile where 432 structures sit close enough to vegetation that lot clearing matters most.
Roeville against the rest of the country
Inside Florida, Roeville sits at just the 59th percentile even though it scores 84th 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, Roeville ranks 5,164 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 18,098 by building count (1 is largest). Within Florida alone, it ranks 391 of 955 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Florida on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Roeville
At the 84th percentile nationally, Roeville carries the very high rating that has pushed some carriers to limit new business in similarly-scored places elsewhere in the country. Worth comparing quotes rather than assuming last year's renewal terms still apply.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Because Direct exposure dominates in Roeville (94.3%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
