Table Rock, PA
Table Rock wildfire risk explained
Table Rock's 98 buildings earn a 9th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Table Rock at the 9th percentile, close to its 9th-percentile risk score.
Table Rock's building exposure, zone by zone
95.9% of Table Rock's 98 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 94 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 4.1% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 0% are Minimal.
How Table Rock compares
Table Rock's risk sits at a similar level relative to Pennsylvania (7th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (9th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Table Rock ranks 28,632 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 29,151 by building count (1 is largest). Within Pennsylvania alone, it ranks 1,853 of 1,991 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Pennsylvania on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Table Rock's low wildfire rating (9th 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 95.9% of Table Rock in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
