A large number of cities are built in earthquake zones on or near fault lines. Earthquakes can create nice deep harbours, hills with nice views and other topography to make a good place to build a city (San Francisco is good example). There are far too many cities to list here but many of the cities that have coastline on the Pacific Ocean have fault lines nearby....

No. Tornadoes have absolutely nothing to do with fault lines.
Most earthquakes do occur on fault lines.
The fault lines
No. Tornadoes are a weather phenomenon and have absolutely nothing to do with fault lines.
Yes. England has minor fault lines but none that are major.
Louisiana has many fault lines, but none that have caused major earthquakes.
Fault lines are really located everywhere, but it's usually the major fault lines that you need to worry about. The recent Virginia earthquake, which occurred on Aug. 23, 2011, was not related to any major geological fault line. However, geologists are concerned with the New York-Alabama Lineament, which is a major magnetic fault line that runs from New York to Alabama. See the Related Link below for more information on fault lines in the U.S. east of the Rocky Mountains.
There are no major nearby fault lines.
Don't build or live in old buildings, and don't build an old and out of date, cheap nuclear power plant on fault lines.
The two cities in Mississippi that major rail lines passed were Jackson and Vicksburg.Regards,- A.Z
Los Angeles and San Fransisco
While there are numerous fault lines everywhere throughout the world, there is not a major fault line that runs through West Virginia. However, previous earthquakes occurring on the New Madrid fault line have been felt in West Virginia.

because of tourism and because people wnat to die a painful death
No, fault lines cause earthquakes
The United States Geographical Services [ USGS ] map should show you all the major fault lines across the whole country.
