Croweburg, KS
Croweburg, KS's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Croweburg at the 70th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (well above the national norm for wildfire risk), a figure built from 82 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Croweburg's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 71st percentile nationally.
Where Croweburg's buildings actually sit
Direct exposure dominates in Croweburg: 100% of its 82 buildings, versus 0% Indirect and 0% Minimal. Clearing space around a structure changes the outcome here more than any single building-material swap.
Where Croweburg ranks
There's little gap between Croweburg's 70th national percentile and its 66th percentile inside Kansas, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Croweburg ranks 9,606 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 29,798 by building count (1 is largest). Within Kansas alone, it ranks 242 of 721 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Kansas on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Croweburg's high rating (70th percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Because Direct exposure dominates in Croweburg (100%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
