Titusville, NJ's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Titusville at the 34th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range), a figure built from 329 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Titusville at the 33rd percentile, close to its 34th-percentile risk score.
Titusville's building exposure, zone by zone
Of Titusville's 329 counted buildings, 79.9% carry Direct exposure and only 2.7% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.
