Graph showing the annual average number of worldwide earthquakes of each magnitude calculated over the last 20 years. This shows how earthquake numbers decrease as magnitude increases. For example: there are roughly ten times as many earthquakes of magnitude 6 than magnitude 7.CLICK TO ENLARGE.n average there are about 15 earthquakes every year with a magnitude of 7 or greater. As with any almost random phenomena, the number of earthquakes each year varies slightly from this average, but in general, there are no dramatic variations.

Alaska has the most earthquakes per year, around 12,000. California has the second most earthquakes per year, around 10,000. Hawaii has the third most earthquakes per year, around 8,000.
