Most earthquakes begin in the Earth's crust, particularly along tectonic plate boundaries where stress builds up due to the movement of these plates. The majority occur at divergent, convergent, and transform boundaries, with the Pacific Ring of Fire being a notable hotspot for seismic activity. Additionally, earthquakes can also originate at depths within the Earth's crust, typically ranging from a few kilometers to about 700 kilometers deep.
