What "at risk" means for the buildings here

How Tylersburg compares
Tylersburg's 63rd-percentile standing inside Pennsylvania outpaces its 40th national percentile — this is a hotter spot than most of its own state, even though the state as a whole runs cooler nationally. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Tylersburg ranks 18,860 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 26,112 by building count (1 is largest). Within Pennsylvania alone, it ranks 735 of 1,991 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Pennsylvania on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Tylersburg's elevated rating (40th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Because Direct exposure dominates in Tylersburg (89.9%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
