County

Acres are the land the fire burned in each county and community, and places where it burned less than an acre are not listed. Communities are cities, towns and the unincorporated places the Census Bureau names, so land outside any of them is counted only in its county. A few city neighborhoods, such as Pacific Palisades, are listed too, and their land is also counted in their city.
