Levasy, MO's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Elevated
42ndpercentile nationally

Separately from the risk score above, Levasy's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 42nd percentile nationally.

Where Levasy's buildings actually sit

109Total buildings
15.6%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
84.4%Minimal exposure

Where Levasy ranks

Inside Missouri, Levasy sits at just the 17th percentile even though it scores 42nd 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, Levasy ranks 18,372 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,662 by building count (1 is largest). Within Missouri alone, it ranks 885 of 1,062 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Missouri on its state page.

Levasy and the insurance market

At the 42nd national percentile, Levasy rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.

Hardening a home in Levasy

With 84.4% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Levasy gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
