Timberlake, OH
Timberlake wildfire risk explained
Out of every US place USFS scores, Timberlake lands at the 22nd percentile for wildfire risk to structures — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — a figure built from its 328 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Timberlake at the 23rd percentile, close to its 22nd-percentile risk score.
Where Timberlake's buildings actually sit
Most of Timberlake's buildings (90.6% of 328) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.
Timberlake against the rest of the country
Timberlake's 54th-percentile standing inside Ohio outpaces its 22nd national percentile — this is a hotter spot than most of its own state, even though the state as a whole runs cooler nationally. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Timberlake ranks 24,466 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 20,879 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 580 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Timberlake
Timberlake's moderate rating (22nd percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 90.6% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Timberlake gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
