Windsor, PA
Windsor wildfire risk explained
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Windsor at the 8th national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 509 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Windsor at the 7th percentile, close to its 8th-percentile risk score.
Windsor's building exposure, zone by zone
Most of Windsor's buildings (73.1%) 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.
Where Windsor ranks
Windsor scores 8th nationally and 6th within Pennsylvania — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Windsor ranks 28,917 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 17,199 by building count (1 is largest). Within Pennsylvania alone, it ranks 1,881 of 1,991 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Pennsylvania on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Windsor
At the 8th national percentile, Windsor rates low 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 Windsor
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Windsor (73.1% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
