Tyrone, NM
Tyrone, NM's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Tyrone at the 74th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (well above the national norm for wildfire risk), a figure built from 337 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Tyrone at the 74th percentile, close to its 74th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
82.8% of Tyrone's 337 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 17.2% Direct and 0% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone.
How Tyrone compares
Tyrone's 74th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 44th ranking inside New Mexico does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 29 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Tyrone ranks 8,360 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 20,662 by building count (1 is largest). Within New Mexico alone, it ranks 276 of 495 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for New Mexico on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Tyrone
Tyrone's high rating (74th percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.
Hardening a home in Tyrone
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Tyrone (82.8% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
