About 700 earthquakes (including aftershocks) are located in the Utah region each year. Approximately 2% of the earthquakes are felt. An average of about 13 earthquakes of magnitude 3.0 or larger occur in the region every year. Earthquakes can occur anywhere in the state of Utah.

On average there are roughly 20,000 - 30,000 recorded earthquakes world-wide every year. On average only one of those earthquakes is magnitude 8 or higher each year.

Between 2000 and 2012 the average number of earthquakes in just the US was 3,820 per year that were magnitude 2.5 or higher.

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.

up to a million earthquakes in a year but so many are below 3 on the Richter scale that they arent even noticed let alone damaging

It depends on Dylan's mood.

Earthquakes happen all the time, so it's impossible to put a number on that.
