What this means for you
- The 13/100 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 7–13 range is how much risk varies street to street. Your exact address could score noticeably higher or lower than the headline — check it before you assume.
- 1 fire 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.
The closest federally recorded wildfire is the BLAND MOUNTAIN 2 (2004), about 22.8 miles away. Insurers weigh this proximity heavily — risk varies street by street, so see the full Roseburg risk report or check your exact address.
