The Hartford has released its ranking of the top 100 U.S. cities with the highest home fire risk, as ranked by the insurer’s Home Fire Index. The index is based on an analysis of the U.S. Fire Administration’s National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) and a survey conducted by The Hartford on fire safety and prevention behaviors among the general population.
The Hartford's findings also includes the top occurances of home fires, like the day after Independence Day (thanks to fireworks), and the top sources of home fires, like candles.
