Yep, using Class-A roofing and a 0–5 foot fire-resistant zone around houses in California and Oregon really cuts down on wildfire insurance claims.

Yes

Data from insurers and state programs in CA and OR show that homes with Class-A roofs plus a 0–5 ft non combustible zone have noticeably lower wildfire losses and insurance claims, leading to premium discounts and easier coverage in high-risk neighborhoods.
