∙ 13y ago~ Of course there are earthquakes in Michigan, its just that there hasn't been one yet. There was probably was one in the past, but to answer your question. No.~
Actually, there was a 4.7 magnitude earthquake in 1947 in Michigan.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoYes. There was even one where the epicenter was reported in eastern Canada. The magnitude is unknown, but the answer to the question is yes; there are earthquakes in Michigan.

Do most earthquakes occur on fault lines?
Most earthquakes do occur on fault lines.
Where do the worlds earthquakes occur around?
Most earthquakes occur where the edges of Earth's plates are.
Is an earthquakes a convergent or transform?
Earthquakes occur at all plate boundaries.
Where earthquakes have hit the most?
Earthquakes occur most in the Indonesian area.
What season do earthquakes occur?
Earthquakes are not a seasonal phenomenon and so the time of year has no effect on the occurrence of earthquakes. As such, earthquakes can happen at any time of the year as they occur independent of weather and climate.
