For Atlantic hurricanes:
As of September 2021, the five most recent hurricanes to make landfall are:
Hurricanes are quite large; they don't really "make landfall" in just one or two cities, but usually impact the whole coast of several states.
The last 5 hurricanes to make landfall in the U.S. at hurricane intensity were:Humberto (2007)Dolly (2008)Gustav (2008)Ike (2008)Irene (2011)Hurricane Earl in 2010 is an honorable mention as it impacted parts of North Carolina with hurricane-force winds but did not make a direct landfall.
Hurricane Emily was a very bad Hurricane. In fact, it was one of the most powerful hurricanes of the 2005 Hurricane Season; it just didn't really make landfall in the United States. However, it did make landfall on the Yucatan Peninsula and later made landfall on the Mexico/Texas border. Hurricane Emily reached winds of 160 mph at its height in the Caribbean.
It depends on what you mean by "one". Irene was not the only tropical cyclone to make landfall in the US in 2011. Tropical Storm Lee made landfall in Louisiana. IF you're talking about hurricanes, that's pure coincidence.

Most hurricanes make landfall in the Western Hemisphere, primarily along the coastal regions of the United States, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean. The Atlantic coast of the United States, particularly Florida and the Gulf Coast states, is particularly vulnerable to hurricanes. The western coast of Mexico and the eastern coast of Central America also frequently experience landfalling hurricanes.
