Tracyton, WA
How exposed is Tracyton to wildfire?
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Tracyton at the 14th national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 2,257 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Tracyton's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 14th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
83.9% of Tracyton's 2,257 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 16.1% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.
Where Tracyton ranks
Tracyton scores 14th nationally and 17th within Washington — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Tracyton ranks 27,152 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 6,802 by building count (1 is largest). Within Washington alone, it ranks 521 of 628 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Washington on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Tracyton
Tracyton's low wildfire rating (14th 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.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 83.9% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Tracyton gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
More on how this number was built
Tracyton's 14th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Tracyton, see the exposure-zones guide.
