The secrets of the San Francisco Columbarium FacebookTwitterEmail The Columbarium, 1 Loraine Court, San Francisco.Andrew Chamings Most Bay Area folk know the oft-repeated fact that the Colma has more dead bodies than living ones it s true and it s not even close. The town, formed in 1924 as one of America s only necropolises, has a living population of about 1,700, but entombs about 1.5 million bodies. The reason that the little town a few miles south of San Francisco is one big graveyard is the mass (and pretty gruesome) movement of bodies that occurred a century ago.
