Normandy, MO's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Elevated
44thpercentile nationally

USFS scores Normandy at the 44th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (modestly above the national average for wildfire risk), a figure built from 1,506 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Separately from the risk score above, Normandy's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 47th percentile nationally.

Normandy's building exposure, zone by zone

1,506Total buildings
3%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
97%Minimal exposure

Only 3% of Normandy's 1,506 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 97% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.

Where Normandy ranks

Normandy ranks lower within Missouri (20th percentile statewide) than its 44th national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Normandy ranks 17,805 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 9,141 by building count (1 is largest). Within Missouri alone, it ranks 850 of 1,062 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Missouri on its state page.

Shopping for coverage in Normandy

At the 44th national percentile, Normandy rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.

Hardening a home in Normandy

With 97% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Normandy gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
