White Hall, AR
How exposed is White Hall to wildfire?
Out of every US place USFS scores, White Hall lands at the 51st percentile for wildfire risk to structures — modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a figure built from its 2,518 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts White Hall at the 51st percentile, close to its 51st-percentile risk score.
White Hall's building exposure, zone by zone
Most of White Hall's buildings (61.7%) sit in the Indirect zone, where wind-blown embers rather than flame front are the mechanism USFS is scoring — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing are the interventions this pattern favors, more than defensible space alone.
White Hall against the rest of the country
Inside Arkansas, White Hall sits at just the 26th percentile even though it scores 51st nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, White Hall ranks 15,557 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 6,272 by building count (1 is largest). Within Arkansas alone, it ranks 454 of 614 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arkansas on its state page.
White Hall and the insurance market
At the 51st national percentile, White Hall rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Hardening a home in White Hall
Because 61.7% of White Hall's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.
Where White Hall's figures come from
White Hall's 51st-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what White Hall's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
