Yznaga, TX
Yznaga wildfire risk explained
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Yznaga at the 35th national percentile for risk to structures, close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — a score built from 77 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 Yznaga at the 34th percentile, close to its 35th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
88.3% of Yznaga's 77 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 68 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 0% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 11.7% are Minimal.
Where Yznaga ranks
Yznaga's 35th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 3rd ranking inside Texas does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 32 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Yznaga ranks 20,594 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 30,032 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 1,744 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Yznaga
Yznaga's moderate rating (35th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
What would actually reduce this score
Yznaga's 88.3% Direct-exposure share means lot clearing around the structure typically outweighs any single material upgrade here. The home-hardening guide ranks the options for a place shaped like this.
