Springboro, OH
Springboro, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Springboro's 7,060 buildings earn a 20th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Springboro at the 22nd national percentile — 2 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Most of Springboro's buildings (76.7% of 7,060) 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. At 7,060 buildings, this is a substantial built environment, so the shares below describe a real population of structures, not a handful of edge cases.
Springboro against the rest of the country
Compare Springboro's two percentiles: 50th within Ohio, only 20th nationally — a gap of 31 points that marks it as unusually exposed for its own state. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Springboro ranks 25,350 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 2,428 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 629 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Springboro and the insurance market
Springboro's low wildfire rating (20th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.
What would actually reduce this score
With 76.7% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Springboro 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
Springboro's 20th-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 Springboro, see the exposure-zones guide.
