Haynes, AR
Haynes, AR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Haynes sits at the 37th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 92 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 Haynes at the 38th percentile, close to its 37th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
57.6% of Haynes's 92 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 53 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 42.4% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 0% are Minimal.
Haynes against the rest of the country
Haynes's 37th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 18th ranking inside Arkansas does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 20 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Haynes ranks 19,718 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 29,388 by building count (1 is largest). Within Arkansas alone, it ranks 507 of 614 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arkansas on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Haynes
Haynes's moderate rating (37th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Haynes's 57.6% Direct-exposure share means lot clearing around the structure typically outweighs any single material upgrade here. The home-hardening guide ranks the options for a place shaped like this.
