Woodcock, PA
Woodcock, PA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Woodcock at the 33rd national percentile for risk to structures, close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — a score built from 119 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 Woodcock at the 35th percentile, close to its 33rd-percentile risk score.
Where Woodcock's buildings actually sit
Direct exposure dominates in Woodcock: 89.1% of its 119 buildings, versus 10.9% Indirect and 0% Minimal. Clearing space around a structure changes the outcome here more than any single building-material swap.
Woodcock against the rest of the country
Woodcock scores 33rd nationally and 45th 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, Woodcock ranks 21,129 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,214 by building count (1 is largest). Within Pennsylvania alone, it ranks 1,099 of 1,991 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Pennsylvania on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Woodcock's moderate rating (33rd percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Hardening a home in Woodcock
Because Direct exposure dominates in Woodcock (89.1%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
Where Woodcock's figures come from
Woodcock's 33rd-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 Woodcock's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
