Stockport, IA
Stockport, IA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Stockport at the 35th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range), a figure built from 213 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Stockport at the 35th percentile, close to its 35th-percentile risk score.
Stockport's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 17.4% of Stockport's 213 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 82.6% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
How Stockport compares
Stockport scores 35th nationally and 49th within Iowa — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Stockport ranks 20,634 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 24,362 by building count (1 is largest). Within Iowa alone, it ranks 518 of 1,017 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Iowa on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Stockport
Stockport's moderate wildfire rating (35th 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
With 82.6% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Stockport gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
Where Stockport's figures come from
Stockport's 35th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Stockport's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
