Rossmoyne, OH

Rossmoyne, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Low
11thpercentile nationally

USFS scores Rossmoyne at the 11th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 1,073 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Rossmoyne at the 12th national percentile — 2 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

Rossmoyne's building exposure, zone by zone

1,073Total buildings
21.6%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
78.4%Minimal exposure

Most of Rossmoyne's buildings (78.4% of 1,073) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.

Where Rossmoyne ranks

Within Ohio, Rossmoyne ranks higher (33rd percentile) than it does nationally (11th) — one of the more fire-exposed places in a state that, overall, scores lower than that. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Rossmoyne ranks 28,186 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 11,447 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 850 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

Rossmoyne's low rating (11th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

With 78.4% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Rossmoyne gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
