Population over time
2 figuresIdaville fell from 461 to 440 between 2010 and 2020. These are the recorded population figures Wikidata holds for this place, reached through the Geographic Names Information System number this page is keyed on rather than by name, so they belong to this place and not to another of the same name. Most are census counts, but not all are: an early figure may be a founding or settlement estimate, and an estimate published within five years of a census is left out. The change column is computed, and is left blank where more than 20 years separate a figure from the one before it, because a gap that long is not a change between two counts.

| July 2017 | Tornado (EF0) | Idaville | $40,000 | The tornado touched down in a grove of trees northwest of the intersection of CR 1150 E and 475 N. The tornado proceeded rapidly southeast impacting the edge of residence near the same intersection. Shingle damage was noted on all sides of the house with several tree limbs down. A garage suffered damage as the winds moved through a north facing door. The tornado crossed 1150 E and uprooted or snapped several trees with the winds picking up a porch and most of a roof on a 1 story home. The porch was thrown to the other side of the house and the roof lifted roughly 3 feet up and then set back down. Wall and roof damage has made house unsafe to be in. Damage was noted in corn field behind property with some tree and barn roof damage on 1250 E where the tornado appears to have lifted. Maximum winds were estimated at 85 mph. |
