Thackerville's building exposure, zone by zone
79.6% of Thackerville's 372 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 296 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 20.4% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 0% are Minimal.
Where Thackerville ranks
Thackerville ranks lower within Oklahoma (43rd percentile statewide) than its 89th national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Thackerville ranks 3,508 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 19,826 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 477 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Thackerville and the insurance market
At the 89th percentile nationally, Thackerville 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.
