More than 1.2 million residential properties in 13 states across the western U.S. are at high or very high risk for wildfire damage, putting the total at-risk property value at an estimated $189 billion, according to a report by CoreLogic.

Residential property information and analytics provider CoreLogic released its 2013 CoreLogic Wildfire Hazard Risk Report, which outlines statistics of residential property risk at different geographic levels.

The report explores findings including states and other geographic locations where homes are at “very high risk,” with Los Angeles being the city with the most residential properties at risk.
