What this means for you
- The 6/100 score rates this area's wildfire exposure from 0 (minimal) to 100 (extreme). Insurers use similar models to decide whether to offer a policy and what to charge — a score in this range usually means coverage stays available and competitively priced.
- “Low” is the band that score falls into. Coverage is widely available and competitively priced here.
- The neighborhood range is how much risk varies street to street. Risk is fairly consistent across this area, though your specific lot still matters.
- 0 fires within 25 miles since 2000 is the area's recent track record. Underwriters treat a longer nearby fire history as higher risk for the whole ZIP — not only the homes that actually burned.
