Later counts assumed around 3,200 casualties in Pelileo; the total death toll estimates were adjusted to around 4,000 people. Officials reported that many of the dead had been inside buildings as they buckled, or were killed by flooding brought about by the blockage of a drainage canal. Others were crushed by landslides from nearby mountains. No homes in the city of Pelileo were left standing, many buildings were flattened, and large cracks formed in the ground. In Ambato alone, 75 percent of the homes still standing had to be demolished.[10] On August 8, an aftershock with "considerable strength" struck near Ambato.[11]

The final death toll, according to the United States Geological Survey, was 5,050.[1] The earthquake severely affected some 30 communities and left approximately 100,000 people homeless.[10]
