On average the number of earthquakes just in the United States is 3,820 per year that are magnitude 2.5 or higher according to the USGS.

That's over 10 per day so somewhere in the US there was an earthquake - the most of which are located in Alaska and California. Granted that most of those earthquakes are small with no noticeable damage to people or property.

There are actually many more smaller earthquakes each day in US with magnitude less than 2.5, many of which hit remote areas and go undetected.

If you think you felt an earthquake, you can visit the "Did you Feel it?" (DYFI) website that collects information from people who felt an earthquake and creates maps that show what people experienced and the extent of damage.

The USGS Earthquake Hazards Program also has maps of recorded earthquakes around the world:
