It gets so many Earth Quakes because it is under a fault line. Plates under the Earth's surface rub against each other and create Earth Quakes.

A system of faults refers to a group of interconnected faults in a specific region. The "San Andreas System" is a network of faults in California, including the San Andreas Fault, that collectively accommodate tectonic movement along the boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate.
The name of the transform boundary that separates the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate is known as the San Andreas Fault. It is the site of many of the earthquakes that plague Southern California.

The kind of fault you may be contemplating about is a transform fault which occurs like all earth quakes when the Earth's tectonic plates move as sea currents change there appearance. A transform fault is the force of two surfaces rubbing across each other creating huge earth quakes like the ones of 1906 and 1989 in San Andreas.
San Andreas - novel - has 306 pages.
San Fernando Valley Quakes was created in 2006.
The largest geographical fault in California is the San Andres fault. This large fault is responsible for the largest quakes to hit the state. The San Jacinto, Elsinore, and Imperial are smaller parallel faults to the San Andres.
I think you will ind that it is the San Andreas Fault line.
Truck drivers call San Francisco "Shakey Town" because of the earth quakes.
