Egeland, ND
Egeland, ND's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Egeland at the 69th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (well above the national norm for wildfire risk), a figure built from 73 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Egeland's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 64th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Egeland rates 65.8% Minimal exposure against just 34.3% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 73 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
Egeland against the rest of the country
Within North Dakota, Egeland ranks higher (87th percentile) than it does nationally (69th) — one of the more fire-exposed places in a state that, overall, scores lower than that. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Egeland ranks 9,842 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 30,183 by building count (1 is largest). Within North Dakota alone, it ranks 55 of 402 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for North Dakota on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Egeland's high rating (69th percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.
What would actually reduce this score
Egeland's 65.8% 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.
