Eden, WY
Eden wildfire risk explained
Eden's 241 buildings earn a 51st-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.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Eden at the 48th national percentile — 4 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Eden's buildings actually sit
Direct exposure dominates in Eden: 97.1% of its 241 buildings, versus 2.9% Indirect and 0% Minimal. Clearing space around a structure changes the outcome here more than any single building-material swap.
Eden against the rest of the country
Inside Wyoming, Eden sits at just the 8th percentile even though it scores 51st nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Eden ranks 15,335 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 23,448 by building count (1 is largest). Within Wyoming alone, it ranks 177 of 192 places by risk.

Shopping for coverage in Eden
Eden's elevated rating (51st percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
