Woodville, TX's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Very High
81stpercentile nationally

Woodville sits at the 81st percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 1,497 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Woodville at the 82nd percentile, close to its 81st-percentile risk score.

Woodville's building exposure, zone by zone

1,497Total buildings
46.6%Direct exposure
53.4%Indirect exposure
0%Minimal exposure

Most of Woodville's buildings (53.4%) 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.

Woodville against the rest of the country

Inside Texas, Woodville sits at just the 62nd percentile even though it scores 81st 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, Woodville ranks 6,159 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 9,184 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 679 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.

Shopping for coverage in Woodville

At the 81st percentile nationally, Woodville carries the very 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.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

Woodville's 53.4% Indirect-exposure share points at embers, not flame contact, as the main pathway — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing rank ahead of defensible space here. Detail in the home-hardening guide.

Where Woodville's figures come from

Every one of the two percentiles behind Woodville's 6,159-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Woodville's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
