Seville, OH
Seville, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Seville at the 24th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range), a figure built from 1,275 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Seville at the 24th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Seville's building exposure, zone by zone
63.6% of Seville's 1,275 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 30.1% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.
Seville against the rest of the country
Compare Seville's two percentiles: 56th within Ohio, only 24th nationally — a gap of 33 points that marks it as unusually exposed for its own state. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Seville ranks 24,087 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 10,227 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 555 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
At the 24th national percentile, Seville rates moderate 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
With 63.6% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Seville gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
More on how this number was built
Seville's 24th-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 Seville, see the exposure-zones guide.
