Frannie, WY
Frannie, WY's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Frannie at the 52nd national percentile for risk to structures, modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a score built from 119 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Frannie's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 49th percentile nationally.
Where Frannie's buildings actually sit
84.9% of Frannie's 119 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 15.1% Direct and 0% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone.
How Frannie compares
Inside Wyoming, Frannie sits at just the 8th percentile even though it scores 52nd 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, Frannie ranks 15,114 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,226 by building count (1 is largest). Within Wyoming alone, it ranks 176 of 192 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Wyoming on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Frannie
Frannie's elevated rating (52nd percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
What would actually reduce this score
Because 84.9% of Frannie's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.
Where Frannie's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Frannie's 15,114-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Frannie's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
