Frohna, MO
Frohna, MO's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Frohna's 269 buildings earn a 42nd-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.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Frohna at the 44th percentile, close to its 42nd-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
USFS classifies 91.1% of Frohna's buildings as Direct exposure, higher than its 8.9% Indirect share and far above its 0% Minimal share — a profile where 245 structures sit close enough to vegetation that lot clearing matters most.
How Frohna compares
Frohna ranks lower within Missouri (17th percentile statewide) than its 42nd national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Frohna ranks 18,186 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 22,539 by building count (1 is largest). Within Missouri alone, it ranks 876 of 1,062 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Missouri on its state page.
Frohna and the insurance market
At the 42nd national percentile, Frohna rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
What would actually reduce this score
Because Direct exposure dominates in Frohna (91.1%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Frohna's 42nd-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what direct exposure implies beyond Frohna, see the exposure-zones guide.
