It depends on the tornado. Tornadoes vary greatly in both size and in how far they travel. A typical tornado is 50 to 100 yards wide and travels a mile or two, so the area affected is quite small. The very largest tornadoes can be well over a mile wide and the longest-lasting can travel a couple hundred miles.
