Valley Brook, OK
How exposed is Valley Brook to wildfire?
Valley Brook's 410 buildings earn a 62nd-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — well above the national norm for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Valley Brook at the 62nd percentile, close to its 62nd-percentile risk score.
Valley Brook's building exposure, zone by zone
Most of Valley Brook's buildings (98.3% of 410) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.
How Valley Brook compares
Valley Brook's 62nd national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 9th ranking inside Oklahoma does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 53 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Valley Brook ranks 11,984 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 19,036 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 761 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Valley Brook
Valley Brook's high rating (62nd 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.
What would actually reduce this score
Even with 98.3% of Valley Brook 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.
More on how this number was built
Valley Brook's 62nd-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Valley Brook, see the exposure-zones guide.
