According to the USGS National Earthquake Center there were no earthquakes between 1974 - 2003 that were larger than magnitude 3.5 in following states:
California and Alaska top the list for the most earthquakes in the US for that period.
As of recorded history, Florida is one of the 50 states in the US that has not experienced any damaging earthquakes.
California is most commonly associated with earthquakes in the lower 48 US states. California sits along the San Andreas Fault, a major tectonic boundary that is known for producing large earthquakes. Washington also experiences earthquakes, but they are less frequent and severe compared to California.
Earthquakes can occur in any state, but California experiences the most earthquakes due to its location along the San Andreas Fault. Other states with a higher frequency of earthquakes include Alaska, Nevada, and Oklahoma.
Earthquakes also commonly occur in states such as Alaska, Nevada, Hawaii, and Washington in the United States. These states are located near tectonic plate boundaries where seismic activity is more frequent.
States with higher earthquake activity include California, Alaska, Nevada, Hawaii, and Washington. Other states such as Oklahoma, Texas, and Utah also experience frequent seismic activity due to human-induced causes like fracking.
Florida and North Dakota have the fewest earthquakes in the US.
the 2 states with the LARGEST amount of Earthquakes per year are Hawii & Alaska (FACT)
Yes, Hawaii has the most earthquakes and volcanoes in the US.
Earthquakes in the middle US states are a concern because the fault line there could lead to the highest loss in economy due to a natural disaster.
The US Geological Survey (USGS) National Earthquake Information Center records statistics for earthquakes in the US and worldwide. Between 2000 and 2011 the average number of earthquakes in the US was 3,820 per year that are magnitude 2.5 or higher.The majority of those earthquakes in the US are in Alaska and California with Hawaii in third place.http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/states/top_states.php
If its in US, Florida and North Dakota are reported to have very less number of earthquakes. Also Antarctica is a continent which has very fewer earthquakes.
As of recorded history, Florida is one of the 50 states in the US that has not experienced any damaging earthquakes.
48.
California is most commonly associated with earthquakes in the lower 48 US states. California sits along the San Andreas Fault, a major tectonic boundary that is known for producing large earthquakes. Washington also experiences earthquakes, but they are less frequent and severe compared to California.
On average, there are about 500,000 detectable earthquakes in the world each year, with about 100,000 of those able to be felt. In the United States specifically, there are usually around 20,000 to 30,000 earthquakes each year, most of them small.
All U.S. states have had at least a few tornadoes.
Earthquakes can occur in any state, but California experiences the most earthquakes due to its location along the San Andreas Fault. Other states with a higher frequency of earthquakes include Alaska, Nevada, and Oklahoma.
