Stockholm, SD
How exposed is Stockholm to wildfire?
Stockholm's 116 buildings earn a 52nd-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — modestly above the national average for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Stockholm's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 50th percentile nationally.
Stockholm's building exposure, zone by zone
116 buildings are counted in Stockholm, and 52.6% of them sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone — flame contact, not just ember cast, is the live possibility for most of them, against 47.4% rated Minimal.
Where Stockholm ranks
Inside South Dakota, Stockholm sits at just the 33rd percentile even though it scores 52nd nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Stockholm ranks 15,140 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,385 by building count (1 is largest). Within South Dakota alone, it ranks 295 of 439 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for South Dakota on its state page.
Stockholm and the insurance market
At the 52nd national percentile, Stockholm rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 52.6% of Stockholm in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
