Total deaths: 13
Damage ~$190 million
Katrina:
Peak winds: 175 mph
Winds at landfall: 125 mph

Katrina was deadlier and more destructive because it made landfall in a densely populated area while Patricia hit a mostly rural part of Mexico. Most of the deaths from Hurricane Katrina were in Near Orleans, which flooded when a number of levees around the low-lying city failed. No area impacted by Hurricane Patricia had this vulnerability.
