USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Harrisburg (Franklin) at the 20th percentile, close to its 19th-percentile risk score.
Harrisburg (Franklin)'s building exposure, zone by zone
Most of Harrisburg (Franklin)'s buildings (84.4%) sit in the Indirect zone, where wind-blown embers rather than flame front are the mechanism USFS is scoring — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing are the interventions this pattern favors, more than defensible space alone.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Harrisburg (Franklin) (84.4% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
