Mountain Green, UT
How exposed is Mountain Green to wildfire?
Out of every US place USFS scores, Mountain Green lands at the 97th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a figure built from its 1,398 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Mountain Green's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 95th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
1,398 buildings are counted in Mountain Green, and 58.5% of them sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone — flame contact, not just ember cast, is the live possibility for most of them, against 0% rated Minimal.
Where Mountain Green ranks
Mountain Green's risk sits at a similar level relative to Utah (89th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (97th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Mountain Green ranks 959 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 9,638 by building count (1 is largest). Within Utah alone, it ranks 37 of 326 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Utah on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Mountain Green's very high rating (97th 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.
What would actually reduce this score
With 58.5% of Mountain Green 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.
