Senoia, GA
Senoia, GA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Senoia sits at the 67th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — well above the national norm for wildfire risk — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 1,960 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Senoia at the 70th percentile, close to its 67th-percentile risk score.
Senoia's building exposure, zone by zone
Of Senoia's 1,960 counted buildings, 76.5% carry Direct exposure and only 0% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.
Where Senoia ranks
Senoia's risk sits at a similar level relative to Georgia (53rd percentile statewide) as it does nationally (67th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Senoia ranks 10,460 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 7,589 by building count (1 is largest). Within Georgia alone, it ranks 319 of 669 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Georgia on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Senoia
Senoia's 67th-percentile, 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.
What would actually reduce this score
With 76.5% of Senoia 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.
More on how this number was built
Senoia's 67th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what direct exposure implies beyond Senoia, see the exposure-zones guide.
