2,031 earthquakes per year
There are about 10,000 earthquakes every year
Nevada has the fourth highest number of earthquakes per year after Alaska, California, and Hawaii. They happen in many other places as well but sometimes you just dont feel it. In fact, even NY have earthquakes but they are soooooooooo little. You can barely tell...
There were 16 tornadoes in Nevada in the years 2000-2010
more than a thousand each year

I have been doing some maths and found that in the average year, you'd get about 3,610,364(3 million, 6hundred and 10 thousand, 3hundred and sixty four) earthquakes in a year. Ofcourse these are all around the globe. About 2 million of these are bellow 2 on the Richter scale.

There are many earthquakes each year that cause no damage, but the ones that do can be fatal. It is estimated that an average of 13,298 die each year as a result of earthquakes.
On average, there are roughly 20,000 - 30,000 recorded earthquakes worldwide every year by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Earthquake Information Center.Between 2000 and 2012 the average number of earthquakes in just the US alone was 3,820 per year that are magnitude 2.5 or higher.However, the USGS estimates that several million earthquakes occur in the world each year and go undetected because they hit remote areas or have very small magnitudes.
On average Japan has ~20 earthquakes per day (note many of these are on the ocean floor with little or no effect on land). On March 11, 2011 alone, there were 200+ aftershocks that day so the number can vary greater on a given day due to seismic activity.
