Harrisville, UT
Harrisville, UT's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Harrisville sits at the 70th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — well above the national norm for wildfire risk — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 2,432 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Harrisville at the 64th percentile, close to its 70th-percentile risk score.
Harrisville's building exposure, zone by zone
Most of Harrisville's buildings (79.1% of 2,432) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.
Harrisville against the rest of the country
Inside Utah, Harrisville sits at just the 29th percentile even though it scores 70th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Harrisville ranks 9,408 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 6,435 by building count (1 is largest). Within Utah alone, it ranks 233 of 326 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Utah on its state page.
Harrisville and the insurance market
At the 70th percentile nationally, Harrisville carries the high rating that has pushed some carriers to limit new business in similarly-scored places elsewhere in the country. Worth comparing quotes rather than assuming last year's renewal terms still apply.
Hardening a home in Harrisville
Harrisville's 79.1% 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.
