Doran, MN
Doran, MN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Doran lands at the 28th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — a figure built from its 74 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 Doran at the 25th percentile, close to its 28th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Only 13.5% of Doran's 74 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 86.5% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
Where Doran ranks
There's little gap between Doran's 28th national percentile and its 34th percentile inside Minnesota, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Doran ranks 22,603 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 30,133 by building count (1 is largest). Within Minnesota alone, it ranks 602 of 914 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Minnesota on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Doran's moderate rating (28th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Hardening a home in Doran
Doran's 86.5% 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.
