Davenport, NE
How exposed is Davenport to wildfire?
Davenport sits at the 14th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 350 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Davenport at the 11th percentile, close to its 14th-percentile risk score.
Where Davenport's buildings actually sit
Most of Davenport's buildings (81.4% of 350) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.
Davenport against the rest of the country
Davenport scores 14th nationally and 6th within Nebraska — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Davenport ranks 27,202 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 20,312 by building count (1 is largest). Within Nebraska alone, it ranks 546 of 583 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Nebraska on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Davenport's low rating (14th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
What would actually reduce this score
Davenport's 81.4% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Davenport's 14th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Davenport, see the exposure-zones guide.
