About Wildfire Risk by Zip Code

Wildfire risk scores and historical fire data for 5,000 US zip codes, based on USFS and NIFC data.

Our Mission

Help residents and homeowners understand wildfire risk in their area using authoritative government data — especially important for insurance decisions and evacuation planning.

Data Sources

All data on this site comes from authoritative, publicly available sources:

We do not manufacture or estimate data. Every figure comes directly from the source APIs or published datasets.

Who We Are

We are a small team of data engineers and web developers who believe that government-collected public data should be accessible to everyone — not locked behind paywalls or buried in PDFs.

We build data-driven tools that surface useful insights from free public datasets: Census data, BLS statistics, NREL energy research, USDA nutrition databases, NPS park information, and more.

Data Accuracy

We update our data regularly from the source APIs. While we strive for accuracy, this site is intended for general reference purposes and should not be used as the sole basis for major financial or safety decisions.

For official data, always verify directly at the source:
