Green Hill, IN
Green Hill, IN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Green Hill lands at the 9th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a figure built from its 101 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Green Hill at the 9th national percentile — 0 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Green Hill's buildings actually sit
USFS classifies 99% of Green Hill's buildings as Direct exposure, higher than its 1% Indirect share and far above its 0% Minimal share — a profile where 100 structures sit close enough to vegetation that lot clearing matters most.
Where Green Hill ranks
Green Hill's 52nd-percentile standing inside Indiana outpaces its 9th national percentile — this is a hotter spot than most of its own state, even though the state as a whole runs cooler nationally. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Green Hill ranks 28,765 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,989 by building count (1 is largest). Within Indiana alone, it ranks 466 of 967 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Indiana on its state page.
Green Hill and the insurance market
Green Hill's low wildfire rating (9th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.
Hardening a home in Green Hill
With 99% of Green Hill in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
