Tornadoes do not kill enough people to make a notable dent in the local population. The deadliest tornado to hit the U.S. in recent years killed 158 people in a city of 50,000, much less than 1% of the population. In the aftermath of a tornado, however, some people may choose to leave rather than rebuild. For example, about half the population of Greensburg, Kansas has left since much of the town was destroyed by a tornado in 2007.

How is a tornado going to affect a large population?
The main way in which a tornado might affect a large population is loss of property and loss of electricity. A relatively weak tornado can bring down power lines and cut off power to a large area depending on where it hits. When a violent tornado goes through a large population area hundreds, even thousands of homes may be destroyed or severely damaged. A tornado is not likely to kill a significant portion of a large population. The deadliest tornado of recent years killed 158 after going through Joplin, Missouri, a city with a population of about 50,000. A more notable percentage, over 1,100 or about 2% of the city's population was injured. Since about a third of the city was directly impacted by the tornado, that means about 6-7% in the path were injured. Note, however that this was an extreme case as this was only the second tornado since 1979 to injure more than 1,000.
How were people effected by the Joplin tornado?

What are the changes in species on a tornado?

How does climate change effect people and animals?
Did you hear about that tornado in indiana or that tsunami in japan? That effected a lot of people! Why because they weren't used to it... they weren't prepared for a climate change like a tsunami. It's not everyday that you have a tornado or a strom or a tsunami isn't it? It brought a lot of damage and killed a lot of animals! For example if you lived in Indiana then you weren't prepared for a tornado or a tsunami. That's when it came it damaged our food our houses and it killed a lot of people! You could've died! sources: I was in a tornado... It damaged my house and all of my valuables were gone done! I live in Indiana like right in the middle of where the tornado happened. My dad died and my sister was injured. Do you think that effected me? Why of course it did! I have no dad anymore (Why did i bring this up I am crying now!)
