There are normally more earthquakes in coastal areas because they are on the fault lines between the different techtonic plates.

yes as they are usually on the edge of tectonic plates which is the reason that the earthquake happened
an earthquake hazard
Earthquake A, with a Richter Magnitude of 7, releases significantly more energy than Earthquake B, which has a magnitude of 6. Specifically, each whole number increase on the Richter scale represents approximately 31.6 times more energy release; therefore, Earthquake A releases about 31.6 times more energy than Earthquake B. This difference can lead to more severe damage and a greater impact on structures and populations in the affected area.

It usually depends on the population of people living near the coast since tsunamis occur in near the coastal area. Similarly, it depends on the area the earthquake strikes at.
It depends on how big the earthquake is. A big earthquake will cause more damage to the area.
On coastal areas
It is called an aftershock.
An area with older, unreinforced buildings close to the epicenter of the earthquake would likely suffer the most damage. Additionally, areas with loose, saturated soil such as coastal regions or riverbanks could experience increased liquefaction and ground shaking, leading to more severe impacts.

A certain area might suffer more damage in earthquakes. It is because that area might be near the epicenter.
A tsunami caused by an earthquake is generally more dangerous than the earthquake itself. Tsunamis can travel long distances in the ocean and cause widespread devastation when they hit coastal areas. They can inundate low-lying regions with powerful currents and flooding, resulting in significant loss of life and property damage.
