Logan, ND
Logan, ND's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Logan at the 50th national percentile for risk to structures, modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a score built from 198 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Logan at the 50th national percentile — 0 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Logan's building exposure, zone by zone
Of Logan's 198 counted buildings, 99% carry Direct exposure and only 0% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.
Where Logan ranks
Logan scores 50th nationally and 52nd within North Dakota — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Logan ranks 15,798 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 24,932 by building count (1 is largest). Within North Dakota alone, it ranks 196 of 402 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for North Dakota on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Logan's elevated wildfire rating (50th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 99% of Logan in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
