Roofing in Auburn
Auburn is home to Auburn University, the city's largest employer, and grew from fewer than 5,000 residents in 1940 to 65,508 in 2020. That growth shows in the housing: Census estimates put the median home at 2001, with about half of homes built since 2000. Landmarks include Toomer's Corner downtown and Chewacla State Park.
Storms that have hit Auburn
On January 22, 2017 an EF0 tornado crossed I-85 near Beehive Road, peeled back half the roof of a mobile home and caused shingle damage to apartment buildings near Longleaf Drive before dissipating near the southwest edge of the Auburn University campus (NOAA). During Tropical Storm Zeta on October 29, 2020 the Auburn airport weather station (KAUO) recorded a 55 mph gust, with trees and power lines down across Lee County.
