Ivanhoe, MN
Ivanhoe, MN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Ivanhoe sits at the 29th 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 456 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 Ivanhoe at the 24th percentile, close to its 29th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
88.2% of Ivanhoe's 456 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 11.8% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.
How Ivanhoe compares
Ivanhoe scores 29th nationally and 35th within Minnesota — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Ivanhoe ranks 22,436 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 18,157 by building count (1 is largest). Within Minnesota alone, it ranks 593 of 914 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Minnesota on its state page.
Ivanhoe and the insurance market
At the 29th national percentile, Ivanhoe rates moderate for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
What would actually reduce this score
With 88.2% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Ivanhoe gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
