De Land, IL
De Land, IL's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
De Land sits at the 1st 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 315 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, De Land's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 1st percentile nationally.
De Land's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 9.2% of De Land's 315 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 90.8% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
Where De Land ranks
De Land's risk sits at a similar level relative to Illinois (7th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (1st) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, De Land ranks 31,319 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 21,224 by building count (1 is largest). Within Illinois alone, it ranks 1,349 of 1,445 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Illinois on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in De Land
At the 1st national percentile, De Land rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
What would actually reduce this score
De Land's 90.8% 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.
