Roosevelt Park, MI
Roosevelt Park wildfire risk explained
Roosevelt Park sits at the 16th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 1,510 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Roosevelt Park at the 17th percentile, close to its 16th-percentile risk score.
Roosevelt Park's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 2.5% of Roosevelt Park's 1,510 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 97.6% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
How Roosevelt Park compares
Compare Roosevelt Park's two percentiles: 54th within Michigan, only 16th nationally — a gap of 39 points that marks it as unusually exposed for its own state.

Within Michigan alone, it ranks 341 of 745 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Michigan on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Roosevelt Park
Roosevelt Park's low wildfire rating (16th 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.
What would actually reduce this score
Roosevelt Park's 97.6% 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.
More on how this number was built
Roosevelt Park's 16th-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 Roosevelt Park, see the exposure-zones guide.
