Locals in Paradise dispute the body count because so much of the area was single, 75+ retirees with no heirs.
That being said, this one was real bad.
I'm from paradise. We counted ~83 crosses on the outside of town just a few weeks after, and they were all named, iirc. So there's absolutely more than that. Paradise was 25,000 and at one point, I delivered pizzas. I found areas of paradise I had no idea existed and I had lived there since I was in 5th grade.
I might have a picture of those crosses in my Google photos. Gimme a sec.
Here's a 5 min video I took of each of them: https://photos.app.goo.gl/cWRoi6mD5ymbMRKM6

It was higher in Paradise for sure. They stopped reporting more bodies found after the initial count. I'm friends with a couple of locals that worked on the cleanup crews, and they personally had to stop and call the owners of multiple houses about bodies, and they had no idea who would've been there. Probably transients or anyone looking for shelter.
