Leipsic, OH
Leipsic, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Leipsic lands at the 0th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a figure built from its 1,256 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Leipsic at the 0th percentile, close to its 0th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Leipsic rates 95.6% Minimal exposure against just 4.4% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 1,256 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
How Leipsic compares
Leipsic scores 0th nationally and 1st within Ohio — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Leipsic ranks 31,471 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 10,319 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 1,253 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Leipsic
Leipsic's low rating (0th 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
With 95.6% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Leipsic gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
