Indian Springs, TX's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

High
76thpercentile nationally

USFS scores Indian Springs at the 76th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (well above the national norm for wildfire risk), a figure built from 536 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Indian Springs at the 77th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
