Storm record for Greenville and Greenville County

The same record has 11 tornadoes, with EF2 the highest rating.
Adjusted for size, Greenville County is number 1 of the 17 counties in South Carolina that we compare, so it sits in the top third at 119.3 reports per 1,000 square miles.

Who lives under these roofs
Half the homes in Greenville were built before 1987, which is an age of 39 years or more.

Against a median home value of $453,300, a $10,125 mid-range asphalt roof is 2 percent of the house.
