California is associated with the most earthquakes in the United States due to its location along the San Andreas Fault, a major tectonic plate boundary. These earthquakes vary in size and frequency, with some causing significant damage and loss of life.
Italy has experienced many earthquakes.
Florida is primarily in the seismically inactive zone of Zone 0. However, certain areas of the state, such as the southern tip of the state, are located near the boundary of Zone 1, which has a low probability of experiencing earthquakes.
California has the 2nd most, Alaska has the most (many are in the Aleutian Islands).
Most earthquakes are found in or around the Ring of Fire located in the Pacific basin. The Ring of Fire is the site of mountain ranges, along with volcanoes and earthquakes. The Andes in South America, the Cascade Range of North America, and the Southern Alps of New Zealand are all associated with the Ring of Fire.

Southern California experiences thousands of earthquakes every year, but most are very small and go unnoticed. On average, Southern California typically experiences several hundred earthquakes each year that are large enough to be felt by people.
Earthquakes and volcanoes, although sometimes related are not always found in the same place. Although you will always see earthquakes associated with volcanoes, an earthquake can occur without any volcanic implications. Earthquakes are most commonly experienced along the west coast of the United States as well as along the southern part of the state of Alaska. Although this is the most common place to experience earthquakes, they can happen anywhere throughout the United States. Volcanoes are also most common along the west coast of the United States (with the exception of southern and central California) as well as the southern part of Alaska. The central and southern parts of California although the most prone to earthquakes do not at this time have a heavy concentration of active volcanoes. The earthquakes in this area are driven primarily by the San Andres and sister fault lines.
