Lilburn, GA
Lilburn, GA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Lilburn at the 46th national percentile for risk to structures, modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a score built from 4,196 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Lilburn at the 48th national percentile — 3 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Lilburn's buildings actually sit
USFS classifies 61.7% of Lilburn's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 38.3% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.
Where Lilburn ranks
Lilburn's 46th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 1st ranking inside Georgia does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 45 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Lilburn ranks 17,106 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 4,064 by building count (1 is largest). Within Georgia alone, it ranks 662 of 669 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Georgia on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Lilburn's elevated rating (46th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Hardening a home in Lilburn
Lilburn's 61.7% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Lilburn's 46th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Lilburn, see the exposure-zones guide.
