The cost of an earthquake does not strictly depend on its intensity. How destructive an earthquake also depends on where it occurs. Factors that can make an earthquake more destructive include:
- A shallow hypocenter
- An epicenter near a densely populated area
- Buildings built on soft sediment
- Poor quality of construction
A magnitude 6.5 Earthquake that occurs in the middle of nowhere is unlikely to cause much damage. One that strikes a major population center full of poorly constructed buildings could cause damage worth tens of billions of dollars.
