Skyline Acres, OH
Skyline Acres, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Skyline Acres at the 12th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 637 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Skyline Acres's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 14th percentile nationally.
Where Skyline Acres's buildings actually sit
Most of Skyline Acres's buildings (79.4% of 637) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.
Skyline Acres against the rest of the country
Compare Skyline Acres's two percentiles: 37th within Ohio, only 12th nationally — a gap of 25 points that marks it as unusually exposed for its own state. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Skyline Acres ranks 27,617 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 15,385 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 795 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 12th national percentile, Skyline Acres rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Hardening a home in Skyline Acres
Skyline Acres's 79.4% 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.
Where Skyline Acres's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Skyline Acres's 27,617-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide.
