De Tour Village, MI
De Tour Village, MI's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
De Tour Village's 570 buildings earn a 59th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — modestly above the national average for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, De Tour Village's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 54th percentile nationally.
De Tour Village's building exposure, zone by zone
Indirect exposure is dominant in De Tour Village (60.4% of 570 buildings): far enough from burnable vegetation to avoid flame contact, close enough for wind-blown embers. Only 31.1% sit in the Direct zone.
How De Tour Village compares
Compare De Tour Village's two percentiles: 97th within Michigan, only 59th nationally — a gap of 38 points that marks it as unusually exposed for its own state. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, De Tour Village ranks 12,885 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 16,248 by building count (1 is largest). Within Michigan alone, it ranks 21 of 745 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Michigan on its state page.
De Tour Village and the insurance market
De Tour Village's elevated rating (59th 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
Because 60.4% of De Tour Village's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
De Tour Village's 59th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what indirect exposure implies beyond De Tour Village, see the exposure-zones guide.
