Oregon Wildfire Hazard Profile

Climate-Adjusted Hazard Data · Model Version 1.0

Overview

Oregon's wildfire hazard spans the Cascades, Eastern Oregon rangelands, and Willamette Valley WUI interface. The 2020 Labor Day fires demonstrated that wind-driven fire events can threaten major population centers in the Willamette Valley under extreme conditions. Oregon Department of Forestry and NIFC data show increasing fire season severity consistent with regional warming and drought trends.

Notable Historical Events

12020 Labor Day Fires — 1M+ acres, 4,000+ structures destroyed across multiple fires
22021 Bootleg Fire — 413,765 acres, generated pyrocumulonimbus clouds
32018 Camp Creek/Eagle Creek Fire — threatened Columbia River Gorge communities

Hazard Scoring Approach

CivilSense computes a Climate-Adjusted Hazard Score (0–10) for wildfire hazard at any US address. The score is composed of weighted sub-components derived from federal data sources and peer-reviewed research. All score components are transparent and returned in API responses.

These are hazard scores — physical intensity likelihood only. They do not include property exposure or vulnerability data. We never call a hazard score a risk score. See the full methodology for scoring details.
