Tygh Valley, OR
Tygh Valley, OR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Tygh Valley at the 99th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally), a figure built from 206 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Tygh Valley's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 100th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
206 buildings are counted in Tygh Valley, and 57.3% 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.
Tygh Valley against the rest of the country
Tygh Valley's risk sits at a similar level relative to Oregon (94th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (99th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Tygh Valley ranks 456 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 24,649 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 26 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Tygh Valley
Because Tygh Valley 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.
What would actually reduce this score
Because Direct exposure dominates in Tygh Valley (57.3%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Tygh Valley's 99th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what direct exposure implies beyond Tygh Valley, see the exposure-zones guide.
