Springer, OK
Springer wildfire risk explained
Springer's 686 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.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Springer at the 94th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Springer's building exposure, zone by zone
686 buildings are counted in Springer, and 82.9% of them sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone — flame contact, not just ember cast, is the live possibility for most of them, against 0% rated Minimal.
How Springer compares
Springer's 93rd national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 66th ranking inside Oklahoma does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 27 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Springer ranks 2,181 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 14,808 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 287 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Springer and the insurance market
At the 93rd percentile nationally, Springer carries the very high rating that has pushed some carriers to limit new business in similarly-scored places elsewhere in the country. Worth comparing quotes rather than assuming last year's renewal terms still apply.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Because Direct exposure dominates in Springer (82.9%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Springer's 93rd-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what direct exposure implies beyond Springer, see the exposure-zones guide.
