Hollowayville, IL
Hollowayville wildfire risk explained
Hollowayville sits at the 17th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 54 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Hollowayville's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 18th percentile nationally.
Hollowayville's building exposure, zone by zone
54 buildings are counted in Hollowayville, and 83.3% of them are Indirect exposure — ember-driven risk rather than the 16.7% in Direct exposure or the 0% rated Minimal.
Hollowayville against the rest of the country
Hollowayville's 56th-percentile standing inside Illinois outpaces its 17th 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, Hollowayville ranks 26,118 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 30,807 by building count (1 is largest). Within Illinois alone, it ranks 629 of 1,445 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Illinois on its state page.
Hollowayville and the insurance market
Hollowayville's low wildfire rating (17th 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.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Because 83.3% of Hollowayville's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.
