Goodrich, ND
Goodrich, ND's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Goodrich at the 17th national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 230 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Goodrich's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 13th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Goodrich rates 73.9% Minimal exposure against just 26.1% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 230 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
Goodrich against the rest of the country
Goodrich's risk sits at a similar level relative to North Dakota (5th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (17th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Goodrich ranks 26,136 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 23,802 by building count (1 is largest). Within North Dakota alone, it ranks 383 of 402 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for North Dakota on its state page.
Goodrich and the insurance market
Goodrich's low rating (17th 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 Goodrich
Goodrich's 73.9% 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.
