What "at risk" means for the buildings here

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Santa Ana Pueblo's 91.3% Direct-exposure share means lot clearing around the structure typically outweighs any single material upgrade here. The home-hardening guide ranks the options for a place shaped like this.
