The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 10 fires within 5 miles of Five Points between 2002 and 2020, burning about 33 acres in total. None started naturally. None was recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Brownstown
• Fincastle
• Macon
• Sardinia
• Arnheim
• Ash Ridge

Every fire recorded in Brown County

Museums hold 244 specimens collected within 10 miles of Five Points between 1885 and 1974: 177 Animalia, 59 Fungi, 8 Plantae. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A JOHN, A. B. Seymour, A. Braun and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
