We received 1 report for this quake from the United States.It came from near Torrance, a city with more than 140,000 inhabitants in California in 8.3 km (5.2 mi) distance east of the epicenter, United States.
The amount of shaking that occurs on the surface due to an earthquake is called the intensity. It is commonly measured on the so-called Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) ranging from 1 (not felt) to 10 (extreme shaking), and given in Roman numerals as I,II,...IX, X, and often displayed with color codes ranging from light blue to dark red.Earthquake intensity depends mainly on the magnitude and depth of the quake as well as the distance from the epicenter: The further away, the less shaking intensity occurs.Read more about the MMI scale!
The more agencies report about the same quake and post similar data, the more confidence you can have in the data. It takes normally up to a few hours until earthquake parameters are calculated with near-optimum precision.
Based on data from the past 56 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 1,800 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):
The area where this quake occurred has a high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 4 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 30 to 35 years.
The earthquake was the strongest to hit this part of the United States in over 1 year 22 weeks. Earlier, the last quake of equal or greater strength near the present epicenter had been a magnitude 4.6 earthquake on Thursday, Sep 12, 2024, at 07:28 am local time (America/Los Angeles GMT -7) in 42 km (26 mi) distance to the northwest: The strongest-ever (since 1900) recorded quake in this area measured magnitude 7.5. It had occurred 74 years ago earlier, on Monday, Jul 21, 1952, at 04:52 am local time (America/Los Angeles GMT -7) in California, United States: Below is a list and map of larger or recent quakes that had occurred near the epicenter before this earthquake (within up to 100 km/61 mi distance, up to 300 km/183 mi for very large quakes above mag. 7).

HERMOSA BEACH, Calif. – Hermosa Beach and other L.A.-area beach cities scored historic highs on the Gallup National Health and Well-Being Index (WBI) despite national declines, indicating that the Beach Cities continue to be among the healthiest places to live in the nation, the Beach Cities Health District (BCHD) has revealed.
The combined 2025 score of 69.5 for Hermosa, Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach was the Beach Cities’ highest ever and substantially outpaced the national average score of 60.1, the BCHD said Feb. 2.
The WBI surveys adults nationwide on five elements of well-being: career, community, financial, physical and social. These five anchors contribute to the overall WBI score; a high score means a life well-lived. The Beach Cities have had improvements in all five elements of well-being in the past 10 years, amid national declines.
“The Beach Cities are outpacing the U.S. across most metrics, and their excellent improvement over time – despite a high starting point – has been impressive,” Dan Witters, Gallup’s research director of the Well-Being Index, said.
Gallup, on behalf of Beach Cities Health District (BCHD), has administered the WBI nine times since 2010. The 2025 WBI data was collected last fall and is weighted and adjusted based on demographic statistics and sample size.
Witters, who has managed the WBI since 2009, presented the WBI findings to the BCHD Board of Directors on Jan. 28.
The report also showed that awareness and public opinion of BCHD itself has improved over the past five years. Since 2020, awareness of the Health District has improved from 67% to 71%, with 57% expressing a favorable opinion of the District – a two-percentage point increase since 2020.
Among the other report’s other findings:
