How exposed is Turner to wildfire?

Moderate
34thpercentile nationally

Turner's 1,252 buildings earn a 34th-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.)

Separately from the risk score above, Turner's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 37th percentile nationally.

Turner's building exposure, zone by zone

1,252Total buildings
20.2%Direct exposure
78.2%Indirect exposure
1.6%Minimal exposure

Most of Turner's buildings (78.2%) sit in the Indirect zone, where wind-blown embers rather than flame front are the mechanism USFS is scoring — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing are the interventions this pattern favors, more than defensible space alone.

Turner against the rest of the country

Turner scores 34th nationally and 33rd within Oregon — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Turner ranks 20,933 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 10,338 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 284 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

Because Turner is in Oregon, a wildfire-hazard disclosure is legally required before a sale closes here — unusual nationally, since only these two states mandate it. Full detail in the disclosure-law guide.

Hardening a home in Turner

Turner's 78.2% Indirect-exposure share points at embers, not flame contact, as the main pathway — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing rank ahead of defensible space here. Detail in the home-hardening guide.

Where Turner's figures come from

Turner's 34th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Turner's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
