Sharon, OK

How exposed is Sharon to wildfire?

Very High
93rdpercentile nationally

Sharon's 112 buildings earn a 93rd-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Separately from the risk score above, Sharon's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 93rd percentile nationally.

Sharon's building exposure, zone by zone

112Total buildings
22.3%Direct exposure
77.7%Indirect exposure
0%Minimal exposure

77.7% of Sharon's 112 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 22.3% Direct and 0% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone.

Where Sharon ranks

Inside Oklahoma, Sharon sits at just the 63rd percentile even though it scores 93rd nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Sharon ranks 2,304 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,558 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 314 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

Sharon's very high rating (93rd percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

Because 77.7% of Sharon's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.

Where Sharon's figures come from

Every one of the two percentiles behind Sharon's 2,304-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Sharon's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
