Puerto Rico experiences frequent earthquakes due to its location on the boundary between the North American and Caribbean tectonic plates. The complex interactions between these plates, including subduction and lateral sliding, create significant geological stress that can lead to seismic activity. Additionally, the island's position near the Puerto Rico Trench, one of the deepest ocean trenches, contributes to its vulnerability to earthquakes. This tectonic setting makes Puerto Rico susceptible to both minor and significant seismic events.
