Most tornadoes are not strong enough to destroy a typical house and many that are never hit any. Most intense tornadoes may damage some houses but usually do not actually destroy more than a few. However, when a large, violent tornado hits a community, hundreds to thousands of homes may be destroyed.
Potentially an EF5 tornado can destroy thousands of houses. However the measure of a tornado's intensity is not based on the quantity of damage but by the severity of damage. For an EF5 tornado the general indicator is well built houses that are completely removed from their foundations and blown downwind. Some F5/EF5 tornadoes have torn across rural areas, destroying only a few homes. But some of those that were destroyed were completely obliterated.
The Tri-State tornado destroyed about 15,000 homes.
