The only thing I'd change is a number, as the total _population_ county wide is a bit over 3 million.
The more than 300,000 evacuated is more than 10% of the total county population and the number of structures lost is now over 1500. That's a lot of people displaced and a lot of homes destroyed. Homes damaged but not destroyed are bound to be at least double that number.
I'm not at risk, but a lot of good people are, and it's highly offensive to make assumptions about them and mock them.
