Raub, IN
Raub, IN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Raub at the 0th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 61 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Raub at the 0th national percentile — 0 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Only 29.5% of Raub's 61 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 70.5% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
Raub against the rest of the country
There's little gap between Raub's 0th national percentile and its 0th percentile inside Indiana, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Raub ranks 31,494 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 30,613 by building count (1 is largest). Within Indiana alone, it ranks 964 of 967 places by risk.

Shopping for coverage in Raub
Raub's low wildfire rating (0th 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
Raub's 70.5% 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.
