New Prague, MN
New Prague, MN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores New Prague at the 20th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range), a figure built from 2,963 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, New Prague's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 18th percentile nationally.
New Prague's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 10.6% of New Prague's 2,963 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 89.4% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
How New Prague compares
New Prague scores 20th nationally and 24th within Minnesota — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, New Prague ranks 25,187 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 5,494 by building count (1 is largest). Within Minnesota alone, it ranks 697 of 914 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Minnesota on its state page.

Hardening a home in New Prague
With 89.4% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, New Prague gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
