Separately from the risk score above, Farmersville's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 1st percentile nationally.

Where Farmersville's buildings actually sit

525Total buildings
26.9%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
73.1%Minimal exposure

73.1% of Farmersville's 525 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 26.9% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.

How Farmersville compares

Farmersville scores 1st nationally and 0th within Pennsylvania — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Farmersville ranks 31,221 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 16,948 by building count (1 is largest). Within Pennsylvania alone, it ranks 1,991 of 1,991 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Pennsylvania on its state page.

Shopping for coverage in Farmersville

At the 1st national percentile, Farmersville rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

With 73.1% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Farmersville gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.

Where Farmersville's figures come from

Farmersville's 1st-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Farmersville's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
