Prosser, NE
Prosser, NE's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Prosser's 91 buildings earn a 8th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Prosser at the 5th percentile, close to its 8th-percentile risk score.
Where Prosser's buildings actually sit
Prosser rates 85.7% Minimal exposure against just 14.3% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 91 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
How Prosser compares
Prosser's risk sits at a similar level relative to Nebraska (3rd percentile statewide) as it does nationally (8th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Prosser ranks 29,124 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 29,456 by building count (1 is largest). Within Nebraska alone, it ranks 563 of 583 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Nebraska on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Prosser
Prosser's low rating (8th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Prosser's 85.7% 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.
Where Prosser's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Prosser's 29,124-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Prosser's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
