Warwick, GA
How exposed is Warwick to wildfire?
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Warwick at the 63rd national percentile for risk to structures, well above the national norm for wildfire risk — a score built from 258 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Warwick's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 61st percentile nationally.
Warwick's building exposure, zone by zone
60.9% of Warwick's 258 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 157 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 39.2% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 0% are Minimal.
Warwick against the rest of the country
Warwick ranks lower within Georgia (30th percentile statewide) than its 63rd national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Warwick ranks 11,814 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 22,879 by building count (1 is largest). Within Georgia alone, it ranks 476 of 669 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Georgia on its state page.
Warwick and the insurance market
At the 63rd percentile nationally, Warwick carries the high rating that has pushed some carriers to limit new business in similarly-scored places elsewhere in the country. Worth comparing quotes rather than assuming last year's renewal terms still apply.
Hardening a home in Warwick
Because Direct exposure dominates in Warwick (60.9%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
