Earthquake statistics

Average number of earthquakes

Based on data from the past 14 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 1,600 quakes on average per year in Bolivia:
  • Mag. 8 or higher: 0.02 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 41.7 years)
  • Mag. 7 or higher: 0.1 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 10.4 years)
  • Mag. 6 or higher: 0.89 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 1.1 years)
  • Mag. 5 or higher: 14.6 quakes per year
  • Mag. 4 or higher: 182 quakes per year (or 15.1 quakes per month)
  • Mag. 3 or higher: 833 quakes per year (or 69 quakes per month)
  • Mag. 2 or higher: 1,600 quakes per year (or 4.4 quakes per day)
Bolivia has a moderate level of seismic activity. However, Bolivia has had at least 3 quakes above magnitude 8 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 40 to 45 years.
