Separately from the risk score above, Fleischmanns's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 28th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
68% of Fleischmanns's 306 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 208 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 32% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 0% are Minimal.
Where Fleischmanns ranks
Compare Fleischmanns's two percentiles: 57th within New York, only 28th nationally — a gap of 30 points that marks it as unusually exposed for its own state. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Fleischmanns ranks 22,854 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 21,479 by building count (1 is largest). Within New York alone, it ranks 549 of 1,289 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for New York on its state page.
Fleischmanns and the insurance market
Fleischmanns'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 Fleischmanns
