Uniopolis, OH
How exposed is Uniopolis to wildfire?
Out of every US place USFS scores, Uniopolis lands at the 1st percentile for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a figure built from its 210 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Uniopolis at the 1st national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Uniopolis's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 20.5% of Uniopolis's 210 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 79.5% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
Where Uniopolis ranks
There's little gap between Uniopolis's 1st national percentile and its 8th percentile inside Ohio, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Uniopolis ranks 31,126 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 24,493 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 1,173 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Uniopolis
Uniopolis's low rating (1st 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
Even with 79.5% of Uniopolis outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones, basic hardening — gutter maintenance, ember-resistant vents — is inexpensive relative to the regional burn-probability risk noted above. Details in the home-hardening guide.
Where Uniopolis's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Uniopolis's 31,126-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Uniopolis's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
