Stryker, OH
Stryker, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Stryker at the 2nd national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 830 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Stryker at the 3rd national percentile — 0 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
Stryker rates 91.3% Minimal exposure against just 8.7% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 830 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
How Stryker compares
There's little gap between Stryker's 2nd national percentile and its 15th percentile inside Ohio, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Stryker ranks 30,777 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 13,346 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 1,074 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 2nd national percentile, Stryker rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
What would actually reduce this score
With 91.3% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Stryker gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
Where Stryker's figures come from
Stryker's 2nd-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 Stryker's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
