Russia, OH
How exposed is Russia to wildfire?
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Russia at the 1st national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 357 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Russia at the 1st national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Russia's building exposure, zone by zone
Russia rates 82.9% Minimal exposure against just 17.1% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 357 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
Where Russia ranks
There's little gap between Russia's 1st national percentile and its 7th percentile inside Ohio, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Russia ranks 31,185 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 20,139 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 1,186 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Russia
At the 1st national percentile, Russia rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
What would actually reduce this score
Russia's 82.9% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Russia's 1st-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 Russia, see the exposure-zones guide.
