They occur because of nature. Volcanic eruptions signal off an earthquake because normally a volcanic eruption and an earthquake are on a fault line/edge of a tectonic plate.
it has nothing to do with population, but they happen very often in highly populated places such as Japan and San Fransico
Earthquakes occur most often along the boundaries of tectonic plates.

Earthquakes occur on the west side of the United states of America. The state of California is often hit by earthquakes. This is because there is a fault line cause by the tectonic plates on the western coast of America.
Because fat people live near fault lines and them waddling around causes the plates to shift

Earthquakes occur most often along the boundaries of tectonic plates.
Yes, but not as often as earthquakes happen near plate boundaries
Japan and Indonesia have it quite often.
Earthquakes infrequently occur away from plate boundaries. Most earthquakes occur at plate boundaries because of the stress caused by the interacting plates.

The weakest earthquakes, measuring less than 2.0 on the Richter scale, can occur anywhere around the world. These earthquakes are generally not felt by people and are often only detected by seismographs.
Earthquakes occur primarily in regions where tectonic plates interact, particularly along their boundaries. Areas near plate boundaries experience stress and strain due to the movement of these plates, leading to seismic activity. In contrast, regions situated away from these boundaries, often called intraplate areas, are typically more stable and less prone to earthquakes. Therefore, the distribution of earthquakes is closely tied to the geological activity and dynamics of the Earth's crust.
Yes. Not very often, though.
California has a lot of fault lines, that's why.
