California saw significant shifts in population last year as thousands of residents were displaced from their homes by record-breaking wildfires , per a government report.

The states Department of Finance released a population report Wednesday showing what it called dramatic changes caused by... catastrophic wildfires.

The November Camp fire in Northern California, which leveled almost the entire rural town of Paradise, destroyed almost 90% of the towns houses and displaced 83% of its residents , per the report. It was the most destructive wildfire in state history, tearing through nearly 14,000 homes, and was also the states deadliest fire ever, killing 85 people.

Most of those who fled the Camp fire went to nearby cities of Oroville and Chico, a small college town which saw its population balloon by 20% in one year alone, from around 93,000 people in early 2018 to over 112,000 people in January 2019, per the report.

Other counties in the state lost hundreds of houses due to wildfires, including Shasta in the northern part of the state, which lost 900 homes in the Carr fire in July, and Ventura in the South, which lost 700 houses in the deadly Woolsey fire around Malibu last fall.

If anyone is wondering if climate change is real, come to California , Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom said at a press conference last month, speaking on the threat of wildfires in the state and what his government is doing to prevent it.
