New Zealand, thus why about 15,000 earthquakes occur every year there
The frequency of earthquakes depends on the location. in Japan, earthquakes occur 3 times a month, and in the Sahara in Africa they occur once in five years..
There's about 140 earthquakes with 6 magnitude or above a year.
It is almost impossible to know because there are earthquakes of different sizes all over the world. It is said that there are earthquakes happening every where every day. Most are so small they did not register on the Richter Scale and many that do are so small they are not worth mentioning as no one notices or feels them. The only ones that get mentioned and recorded with geological survey centers are the ones that register or are significant enough to be felt or have an effect on anything.
Extremely few. Most earthquakes happen in the ocean, or too far below the crust for us to feel them, but hundreds happen every week.
Thousands occur every year, most of which are too small to notice.
On average, there are roughly 20,000 - 30,000 recorded earthquakes every year.The USGS estimates that several million earthquakes occur in the world each year but many go undetected because they hit remote areas or have very small magnitudes.

It is not fixed.
more than a thousand each year
Between 3000-4000
Lots and lots of earthquakes are happening every day, but many of these are too small, or hit in an unpopulated area, to be counted. However. there are about 70 strong registered earthquakes a year
New Zealand, thus why about 15,000 earthquakes occur every year there
It is impossible to tell. 2010 was a year of numerous large earthquakes around the globe. However, many smaller earthquakes occurred and many more that were too weak to be measured. It is estimated that millions of earthquakes occur each year.
Istaanbul. you'll be surprised to see how many earthquakes hit there every year.....*ohh*
