Warren, MN
Warren, MN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Warren at the 37th national percentile for risk to structures, close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — a score built from 1,027 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Warren's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 37th percentile nationally.
Warren's building exposure, zone by zone
83% of Warren's 1,027 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 17% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.
How Warren compares
There's little gap between Warren's 37th national percentile and its 49th percentile inside Minnesota, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Warren ranks 19,821 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 11,745 by building count (1 is largest). Within Minnesota alone, it ranks 466 of 914 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Minnesota on its state page.
Warren and the insurance market
Warren's moderate rating (37th 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 Warren
Even with 83% of Warren outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones, basic hardening — gutter maintenance, ember-resistant vents — is inexpensive relative to the regional burn-probability risk noted above. Details in the home-hardening guide.
Where Warren's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Warren's 19,821-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Warren's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
