How exposed is Diaperville to wildfire?

Low
14thpercentile nationally

Out of every US place USFS scores, Diaperville lands at the 14th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a figure built from its 37 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Diaperville at the 14th percentile, close to its 14th-percentile risk score.

How Diaperville compares

There's little gap between Diaperville's 14th national percentile and its 14th percentile inside Wisconsin, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Diaperville ranks 27,187 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 31,246 by building count (1 is largest). Within Wisconsin alone, it ranks 695 of 808 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Wisconsin on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

Diaperville's low wildfire rating (14th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

With 100% of Diaperville in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
