Thompsonville, CT
Thompsonville, CT's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Thompsonville at the 25th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range), a figure built from 2,441 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Thompsonville's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 24th percentile nationally.
Where Thompsonville's buildings actually sit
Thompsonville rates 91.9% Minimal exposure against just 8.2% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 2,441 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
How Thompsonville compares
Thompsonville scores 25th nationally and 24th within Connecticut — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Thompsonville ranks 23,785 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 6,418 by building count (1 is largest). Within Connecticut alone, it ranks 164 of 214 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Connecticut on its state page.
Thompsonville and the insurance market
Thompsonville's moderate rating (25th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Hardening a home in Thompsonville
With 91.9% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Thompsonville gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
