Losantville, IN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Low
6thpercentile nationally

USFS scores Losantville at the 6th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 180 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Losantville at the 6th percentile, close to its 6th-percentile risk score.

Where Losantville's buildings actually sit

180Total buildings
18.9%Direct exposure
2.8%Indirect exposure
78.3%Minimal exposure

Most of Losantville's buildings (78.3% of 180) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.

How Losantville compares

Losantville's 39th-percentile standing inside Indiana outpaces its 6th national percentile — this is a hotter spot than most of its own state, even though the state as a whole runs cooler nationally. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Losantville ranks 29,776 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 25,620 by building count (1 is largest). Within Indiana alone, it ranks 593 of 967 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Indiana on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

Losantville's low rating (6th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.

What would actually reduce this score

Losantville's 78.3% 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.
