Randall, KS
Randall wildfire risk explained
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Randall at the 23rd national percentile for risk to structures, close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — a score built from 116 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Randall at the 20th percentile, close to its 23rd-percentile risk score.
Where Randall's buildings actually sit
93.1% of Randall's 116 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 6.9% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.
Where Randall ranks
Randall's 23rd national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 4th ranking inside Kansas does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 19 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Randall ranks 24,229 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,360 by building count (1 is largest). Within Kansas alone, it ranks 691 of 721 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Kansas on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Randall's moderate wildfire rating (23rd percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Even with 93.1% of Randall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones, basic hardening — gutter maintenance, ember-resistant vents — is inexpensive relative to the regional burn-probability risk noted above. Details in the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Randall's 23rd-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Randall, see the exposure-zones guide.
