Mauckport, IN
How exposed is Mauckport to wildfire?
Mauckport sits at the 27th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 77 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Mauckport at the 28th national percentile — 2 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
