How exposed is McCutchenville to wildfire?

Low
2ndpercentile nationally

USFS scores McCutchenville at the 2nd national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 326 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks McCutchenville at the 2nd national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

McCutchenville's 67.2% 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.
