Loomis, NE

Loomis, NE's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Low
5thpercentile nationally

USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Loomis at the 5th national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 281 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Loomis at the 4th percentile, close to its 5th-percentile risk score.

Loomis's building exposure, zone by zone

281Total buildings
6.4%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
93.6%Minimal exposure

Loomis rates 93.6% Minimal exposure against just 6.4% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 281 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.

Loomis against the rest of the country

Loomis scores 5th nationally and 1st within Nebraska — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Loomis ranks 30,110 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 22,154 by building count (1 is largest). Within Nebraska alone, it ranks 578 of 583 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Nebraska on its state page.

Shopping for coverage in Loomis

Loomis's low wildfire rating (5th 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.

Hardening a home in Loomis

With 93.6% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Loomis gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
