Sparrowhawk, OK
Sparrowhawk, OK's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Sparrowhawk at the 92nd national percentile for risk to structures, in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a score built from 182 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Sparrowhawk at the 95th national percentile — 2 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Sparrowhawk's buildings actually sit
Of Sparrowhawk's 182 counted buildings, 100% 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 Sparrowhawk ranks
Sparrowhawk ranks lower within Oklahoma (60th percentile statewide) than its 92nd national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Sparrowhawk ranks 2,432 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 25,564 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 340 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Sparrowhawk
Sparrowhawk's 92nd-percentile, very 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
Because Direct exposure dominates in Sparrowhawk (100%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
Where Sparrowhawk's figures come from
Sparrowhawk's 92nd-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Sparrowhawk's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
