Its not people that are vunelrable, its more like countries. Earthquakes are caused by tectonic plates shifting and giving way, its where 2 plates meet that earthquakes are caused. On Google images you can probably find tectonic plates maps and it will show you where and what places are on top of the plates.
Other then that no specific people are targeted unless you count the residents of the countries!

The earthquakes have not changed. But people have built more buildings as well as buildings that are more expensive in areas where earthquakes are common. Also better communication allows more people to become aware of damage from more earthquakes than they would have been aware of before, so it appears to people that more damage is happening than it would appear before even when the actual damage is identical. Remember the more people hurt in an event the more today's news services want to cover it.
