How this ranking works
Wildfire ranking uses baseline wildfire exposure tiles where available. Cells without a wildfire signal are not treated as high exposure.
Rankings are built from HomeRiskIQ hazard tiles and current state/city scoring. They are designed for comparative research and media context, not official warning decisions.
