Separately from the risk score above, Wrightstown's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 11th percentile nationally.
Wrightstown's building exposure, zone by zone
79.6% of Wrightstown's 1,329 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 20.4% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.
Where Wrightstown ranks
Wrightstown scores 10th nationally and 7th within Wisconsin — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Wrightstown ranks 28,258 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 9,942 by building count (1 is largest). Within Wisconsin alone, it ranks 754 of 808 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Wisconsin on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Wrightstown
Wrightstown's low wildfire rating (10th 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
Wrightstown's 79.6% 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.
