It is because the maximum vibration is in that area. The plate boundaries receive the maximum tremor.

Do earthquakes most often occur at faults that are away from plate boundary?

Earthquakes infrequently occur away from plate boundaries. Most earthquakes occur at plate boundaries because of the stress caused by the interacting plates.

Where are earthquakes or volcanoes likely to occur?

Earthquakes are likely to occur along tectonic plate boundaries where there is movement and stress in the Earth's crust. Volcanoes are likely to occur at convergent plate boundaries, divergent plate boundaries, and hotspots where magma from the Earth's mantle reaches the surface.


Do divergent boundaries have earthquakes?

Earthquakes can, and do, occur at divergent, convergent, and transform plate boundaries.


When an earthquake occurs?

Earthquakes occur when the earth moves, especially along continental plate boundaries.
