Henrieville, UT
Henrieville, UT's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Henrieville's 157 buildings earn a 53rd-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — modestly above the national average for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Henrieville at the 49th national percentile — 5 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
USFS puts 66.9% of Henrieville's 157 buildings in the Indirect exposure zone, versus 33.1% Direct and 0% Minimal — a place where the fire doesn't need to reach the structure directly for embers to.
How Henrieville compares
Inside Utah, Henrieville sits at just the 11th percentile even though it scores 53rd 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, Henrieville ranks 14,733 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 26,588 by building count (1 is largest). Within Utah alone, it ranks 288 of 326 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Utah on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
At the 53rd national percentile, Henrieville rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Henrieville's 66.9% Indirect-exposure share points at embers, not flame contact, as the main pathway — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing rank ahead of defensible space here. Detail in the home-hardening guide.
