Look up quakes! |
Mexico has a high level of seismic activity. Based on data from the past 14 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 13,000 quakes on average per year in Mexico. Mexico has had at least 6 quakes above magnitude 8 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 20 to 25 years.
On average, Mexico has about 11,000 quakes of magnitude 3 or higher per year (Mag 4+: 1,900 quakes per year, Mag 5+: 36.4 quakes per year, Mag 6+: 4.6 quakes per year).
