What each report shows
Fire hazard severity zones
- Non-wildland Urban, farm or barren land
- Moderate The lowest mapped class
- High Fire spreads more readily
- Very High The strictest obligations
CAL FIRE rates how hazardous the land is from what grows there, how steep it is and how far embers travel. The class decides how much defensible space you need, how a new house must be built and what a seller must disclose.
