Where most earthquake's occur?
Along fault lines.
Where do most earthquake occur in California?
Earthquakes can occur almost anywhere in southern California, but are usually located in areas on major fault lines.
Where do most earthquakes occur the most?
Faultlines create a spiderweb of possibilities throughout our known world. A very good "Earthquake Tracker" can be accessed by utilizing the related link below:
Where do the majority of the earthquake on earth occur?
Most earthquakes occur along the oceanic and continental plates where two plates are running into each other or sliding past each other. Fault lines or cracks in the earth can be created along these plate edges. The Pacific plate is the most active so most of the earthquakes are along the edge of that plate such as the Ring of Fire in the basin of the Pacific Ocean.
Is there a fault line in montana?
Yes. Most of Idaho has fault lines. Hill Road (Northern Boise, runs along the base of the foothills) runs along a fault. Idaho is the 6th-most earthquake-prone state in the US. We have dozens of earthquakes a year, but most are so small that no one feels them.
Where most earthquake's occur?

Where is the US is an earthquake most likely to occur?
Along any fault zone.
Where is a major earthquake most likely to occur?

Why can scientist not accurately predict where earthquake will occur?
They cannot determine which point along a fault has the most pressure.

Were would an earthquake most likely occur?
wherever there is a fault line
What is the term for the place where slippage first occurs in an earthquake?
This is at the fault lines. This is were the most damage is going to occur during the earthquake.
Where do volvancoes most likely occur?
along fault lines
Can you compare the strength and frequency method for predicting earthquakes?
The Strength and Frequency Method only predicts how often an earthquake of a particular magnitude will occur. The Gap Hypothesis only predicts where another earthquake is most likely to occur along a fault line. Neither method will predict where the next earthquake will occur in the world, or predict an earthquake happening in a random spot, or predict both the location and strength of an earthquake.
Which location would have the most short-term risk of an earthquake?
An Area along an active fault that has not had recent earthquake activity(:
Where are country earthquakes most likely to occur?
