About Colma, CA
San Mateo County is home to the small city of Colma, which is part of the San Francisco metropolitan area. Hundreds of thousands of bodies were relocated to the city from San Francisco after being removed from their original graves, making the number of deceased in this silent metropolis one thousand times higher than the number of living. Some of the most well-known figures in American history are buried in Colma, along with hundreds of others who have no known grave.
