Webberville, MI
Webberville wildfire risk explained
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Webberville at the 9th national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 745 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Webberville at the 9th percentile, close to its 9th-percentile risk score.
Webberville's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 23.5% of Webberville's 745 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 76.5% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
Where Webberville ranks
Within Michigan, Webberville ranks higher (27th percentile) than it does nationally (9th) — one of the more fire-exposed places in a state that, overall, scores lower than that. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Webberville ranks 28,774 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 14,175 by building count (1 is largest). Within Michigan alone, it ranks 544 of 745 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Michigan on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
At the 9th national percentile, Webberville rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
What would actually reduce this score
Webberville's 76.5% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.
Where Webberville's figures come from
Webberville's 9th-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 Webberville's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
