How exposed is Livonia to wildfire?

Low
10thpercentile nationally

Livonia's 1,006 buildings earn a 10th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Livonia at the 10th percentile, close to its 10th-percentile risk score.

Where Livonia ranks

Livonia's risk sits at a similar level relative to Louisiana (4th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (10th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Livonia ranks 28,432 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 11,889 by building count (1 is largest). Within Louisiana alone, it ranks 468 of 488 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Louisiana on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

Livonia's low rating (10th 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 Livonia

Because Direct exposure dominates in Livonia (59.1%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.

Where Livonia's figures come from

Every one of the two percentiles behind Livonia's 28,432-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Livonia's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
