Why did the witch trials occur in Salem Massachusetts only in the 1690s and why didn't the other places in the US have witch trials or found witches?

There were others in history. Connecticutt, Maine and other locations in Massachusetts. Connecticutt was actually the first state to execute an accused witch. None in the 1690s, however. But there was nothing special about that decade for witch hunting.
