All the dead and most of the injured came from small villages. The larger cities were spared eer- lous casualties, although they suf- fered the loss of many homes.

Residents of Sulmona, s. city of , 19,000, found scarcely a home with- out a damaged roof, but less than 30 persons were injured there.

Six of the dead were at the town of Lama Dei Pelignf. A number of the injured were reported dying.
