Stockton, MO's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

High
71stpercentile nationally

Stockton's 1,207 buildings earn a 71st-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — well above the national norm for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Separately from the risk score above, Stockton's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 72nd percentile nationally.

Stockton's building exposure, zone by zone

1,207Total buildings
39.9%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
60.2%Minimal exposure

Only 39.9% of Stockton's 1,207 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 60.2% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.

Stockton against the rest of the country

There's little gap between Stockton's 71st national percentile and its 84th percentile inside Missouri, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Stockton ranks 9,080 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 10,608 by building count (1 is largest). Within Missouri alone, it ranks 171 of 1,062 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Missouri on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

Stockton's high rating (71st 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.

Hardening a home in Stockton

Stockton's 60.2% 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.

More on how this number was built

Stockton's 71st-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 Stockton, see the exposure-zones guide.
