Graceville, MN
Graceville, MN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Graceville at the 23rd national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range), a figure built from 484 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Graceville's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 16th percentile nationally.
Where Graceville's buildings actually sit
Graceville rates 84.1% Minimal exposure against just 15.9% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 484 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
Where Graceville ranks

Graceville's 84.1% 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.
Where Graceville's figures come from
Graceville's 23rd-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 Graceville's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
