Population over time
3 figuresTexanna grew from 2,083 to 2,293 between 2000 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.

| January 2023 | Tornado (EF1) | Texanna | $100,000 | This tornado developed near the Lake Eufaula shoreline near the 4240 Road, where large tree limbs were snapped. The tornado moved northeast across Texanna Road, destroying storage buildings, damaging homes, destroying a camper trailer, and uprooting trees, then moved across the Duchess Creek arm of the lake. It moved back onshore and across the 1120 Road, where trees were uprooted and an outbuilding was destroyed. The tornado then damaged trees as it crossed the 1110 Road, and dissipated east of the 4290 Road and west of the Muskogee County line. Based on this damage, maximum estimated wind in the tornado was 85 to 95 mph. |
