Oklee, MN
Oklee wildfire risk explained
Oklee's 382 buildings earn a 39th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Oklee at the 36th percentile, close to its 39th-percentile risk score.
Oklee's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 13.9% of Oklee's 382 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 86.1% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
Where Oklee ranks
Oklee scores 39th nationally and 52nd 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, Oklee ranks 19,317 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 19,592 by building count (1 is largest). Within Minnesota alone, it ranks 442 of 914 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Minnesota on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Oklee
Oklee's moderate rating (39th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Hardening a home in Oklee
With 86.1% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Oklee gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
Where Oklee's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Oklee's 19,317-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Oklee's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
