Toquerville, UT
Toquerville, UT's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Toquerville's 820 buildings earn a 96th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Toquerville at the 94th national percentile — 2 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Toquerville's buildings actually sit
820 buildings are counted in Toquerville, and 75.5% of them sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone — flame contact, not just ember cast, is the live possibility for most of them, against 0% rated Minimal.
Toquerville against the rest of the country
Toquerville's risk sits at a similar level relative to Utah (83rd percentile statewide) as it does nationally (96th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Toquerville ranks 1,401 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 13,456 by building count (1 is largest). Within Utah alone, it ranks 56 of 326 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Utah on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Toquerville's very high rating (96th percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.
What would actually reduce this score
Because Direct exposure dominates in Toquerville (75.5%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
Where Toquerville's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Toquerville's 1,401-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Toquerville's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
