Buildings in earthquake zones are typically constructed to withstand earthquakes. Keeping an emergency supply of food, flashlight, radios, and medical supplies is also another safety practice.
Earthquake zones are typically located along tectonic plate boundaries, including regions such as the Pacific Ring of Fire, the Himalayas, the San Andreas Fault in California, and the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. These zones experience frequent seismic activity due to the movement and collision of tectonic plates.
Yes, earthquake zones often coincide with the edges of lithospheric plates because this is where tectonic plate boundaries interact. The movement and interaction of these plates can cause stress to build up and be released in the form of earthquakes.
Through planning the location of infrastructure, designing earthquake-proof infrastructure, strengthening existing infrastructure, education (drills) and earthquake monitoring and warning systems.

Earthquake and volcano activity zones are typically found at tectonic plate boundaries, where plates interact and create geological activity. These boundaries include divergent, convergent, and transform boundaries, where plates either move apart, collide, or slide past each other. The movement and interaction of these plates lead to the formation of earthquakes and volcanic activity.
people dont no
In subduction zones.
yes you can get active and inactive earthquakes zones.
You can follow me on twitter @_laneisha :D

By not taking a long point of view; just hoping that a serious quake won't happen in their lifetime. How else would you explain so many people crowding into California, knowing that someday it will slip into the sea.

Building earthquake-resistant structures n earthquake zones is a mitigation activity.
