Winslow, NE
How exposed is Winslow to wildfire?
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Winslow at the 74th national percentile for risk to structures, well above the national norm for wildfire risk — a score built from 90 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Winslow at the 68th national percentile — 7 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Winslow's buildings actually sit
Winslow rates 90% Minimal exposure against just 10% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 90 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
Winslow against the rest of the country
Winslow scores 74th nationally and 76th within Nebraska — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Winslow ranks 8,105 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 29,500 by building count (1 is largest). Within Nebraska alone, it ranks 143 of 583 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Nebraska on its state page.
Winslow and the insurance market
At the 74th percentile nationally, Winslow carries the high rating that has pushed some carriers to limit new business in similarly-scored places elsewhere in the country. Worth comparing quotes rather than assuming last year's renewal terms still apply.
Hardening a home in Winslow
Winslow's 90% 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.
