Warner, NH
Warner, NH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Warner sits at the 19th 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 234 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Warner's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 19th percentile nationally.
Where Warner's buildings actually sit
234 buildings are counted in Warner, 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 0% rated Minimal.
How Warner compares
Warner's 62nd-percentile standing inside New Hampshire outpaces its 19th national percentile — this is a hotter spot than most of its own state, even though the state as a whole runs cooler nationally. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Warner ranks 25,442 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 23,670 by building count (1 is largest). Within New Hampshire alone, it ranks 39 of 100 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for New Hampshire on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Warner
Warner's low wildfire rating (19th 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 52.6% of Warner 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.
