Do a tornado make a city or a house change after years?

In most cases the worst of a tornado would passover a house in a few seconds, and through a city in a few minutes. A house may take weeks or months to repair, or may simply never by rebuilt. In the case of especially devastating tornadoes, a city can take years to recover, and some never do.For example, after a large portion of the town of Greensburg, Kansas was destroyed by a tornado in 2007 many people did not rebuild. Since then about half the town's population has moved away.
