Spring Green, WI
Spring Green wildfire risk explained
Spring Green sits at the 27th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 928 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Spring Green at the 28th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Spring Green's building exposure, zone by zone
Most of Spring Green's buildings (87.7%) sit in the Indirect zone, where wind-blown embers rather than flame front are the mechanism USFS is scoring — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing are the interventions this pattern favors, more than defensible space alone.
Where Spring Green ranks
Compare Spring Green's two percentiles: 53rd within Wisconsin, only 27th nationally — a gap of 27 points that marks it as unusually exposed for its own state. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Spring Green ranks 23,183 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 12,495 by building count (1 is largest). Within Wisconsin alone, it ranks 382 of 808 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Wisconsin on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Spring Green
Spring Green's moderate wildfire rating (27th 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.
Hardening a home in Spring Green
Because 87.7% of Spring Green's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.
