Maysville, CO
How exposed is Maysville to wildfire?
Maysville sits at the 79th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — well above the national norm for wildfire risk — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 189 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Maysville at the 70th percentile, close to its 79th-percentile risk score.
Maysville's building exposure, zone by zone
USFS classifies 100% of Maysville's buildings as Direct exposure, higher than its 0% Indirect share and far above its 0% Minimal share — a profile where 189 structures sit close enough to vegetation that lot clearing matters most.
Maysville against the rest of the country
Maysville's 79th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 52nd ranking inside Colorado does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 27 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Maysville ranks 6,585 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 25,270 by building count (1 is largest). Within Colorado alone, it ranks 226 of 472 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Colorado on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Maysville's high rating (79th percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 100% of Maysville 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.
