They are concentrated in zones - specifically at or near convergent and divergent tectonic plate boundaries. There are a few exceptions that can occur within tectonic plates which are thought to be caused by mantle plumes which create hot spots. An example would be the Hawaiian Island chain which has formed roughly in the centre of the pacific plate.
