Citrus Heights is mostly flat suburban and not designated as a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, though localized creek corridors carry moderate wildfire risk.
Per CAL FIRE Fire Hazard Severity Zone mapping, Citrus Heights falls almost entirely within the Local Responsibility Area and is not classified as Very High Fire Hazard. The terrain is flat to gently rolling with established suburban neighborhoods. Arcade Creek and similar riparian corridors are the primary wildfire concern, with seasonal grass fires being the dominant hazard. Residents are still encouraged to maintain defensible space per Public Resources Code 4291 and follow all Metro Fire brush abatement requirements. Home hardening incentives through the California FAIR Plan and CAL FIRE programs remain applicable.
