Wynnburg, TN
Wynnburg, TN's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Wynnburg lands at the 5th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a figure built from its 116 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Wynnburg at the 5th percentile, close to its 5th-percentile risk score.
Where Wynnburg's buildings actually sit
USFS classifies 81% of Wynnburg's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 19% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.
Wynnburg against the rest of the country
Wynnburg's risk sits at a similar level relative to Tennessee (0th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (5th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Wynnburg ranks 30,085 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,386 by building count (1 is largest). Within Tennessee alone, it ranks 501 of 502 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Tennessee on its state page.
Wynnburg and the insurance market
Wynnburg's low rating (5th 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 Wynnburg
Wynnburg's 81% 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 Wynnburg's figures come from
Wynnburg's 5th-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 Wynnburg's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
