Trainer, PA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Moderate
35thpercentile nationally

Trainer's 1,113 buildings earn a 35th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Trainer at the 34th national percentile — 1 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

What "at risk" means for the buildings here

1,113Total buildings
3.1%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
97%Minimal exposure

Only 3.1% of Trainer's 1,113 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 97% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.

How Trainer compares

There's little gap between Trainer's 35th national percentile and its 49th percentile inside Pennsylvania, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Trainer ranks 20,531 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 11,198 by building count (1 is largest). Within Pennsylvania alone, it ranks 1,007 of 1,991 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Pennsylvania on its state page.

Trainer and the insurance market

At the 35th national percentile, Trainer rates moderate for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.

Hardening a home in Trainer

Trainer's 97% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.

More on how this number was built

Trainer's 35th-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 Trainer, see the exposure-zones guide.
