Population over time
2 figuresEuless grew from 51,277 to 61,032 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.

The damage path began along Ector Dr and tracked generally towards the northeast with the most significant damage noted along Milam Dr and Harris Dr. Damage mostly consisted of trees limbs down, though a few larger trees were blown over as well. Structural damage was minimal and generally only occurred when trees fell on top of homes. The damage path ended near the intersection of Harwood Dr and N Euless Main.
