Graysville, IN
Graysville, IN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Graysville at the 11th national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 97 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Graysville at the 11th national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

69.1% of Graysville's 97 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 67 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 0% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 30.9% are Minimal.
