Can you feel an earthquake on the first floor everyone i know who is living on the second floor and higher felt the earthquake but i live on the first floor and felt nothing?

Yes, it is possible to not feel an earthquake on the first floor while others on higher floors do feel it. The perception of earthquakes can vary depending on the building's structure, proximity to the epicenter, and personal sensitivity. In some cases, people on the lower floors may not sense smaller tremors as strongly as those on higher floors.

If the region in which you live has not experienced an earthquake in 200 years your earthquake hazard is low?

Not necessarily. Just because an earthquake has not occurred in a region for a long time does not guarantee that one will not happen in the future. It is still important to be prepared for earthquakes regardless of how long it has been since the last one.


When was the last earthquake in Wisconsin?

I recommend the USGS earthquake site, which has a listing of the most recent earthquakes in (nearly) every state. At the time of this writing, it says the last earthquake in Ohio was October 24, 2010, near the Ohio/West Virginia border with the closest city being Marietta. If you live in North Dakota or Wisconsin, there's no listing, as there have been no earthquakes of any significance (greater than 3.5 moment magnitude) there for at least 30 years.
