Because Minnesotans dont live near a neighboring plate tectonic!

Michigan sits in the middle of the North American Plate, so it is not located near any active tectonic plate boundaries where earthquakes typically occur. Although Michigan has experienced some minor seismic activity in the past, it is not prone to large earthquakes due to its stable location within the interior of a tectonic plate.

Intraplate earthquakes occur farther inland than other earthquakes. These earthquakes occur within a tectonic plate, away from plate boundaries where most earthquakes typically occur. Intraplate earthquakes can be caused by ancient faults or stress within the plate itself.

Does hawaii have earthquakes?
Yes, Hawaii does experience earthquakes. The islands are located along a seismically active zone due to the geological setting of the region, primarily as a result of the movement of the Pacific Plate. While most earthquakes in Hawaii are minor and go unnoticed, there have been larger events in the past that have caused damage.
Why do earthquakes occur in Michigan?
Earthquakes in Michigan are relatively rare due to the state being located away from tectonic plate boundaries. However, earthquakes can occur in Michigan due to the reactivation of ancient faults or induced seismic activity from activities like fracking or wastewater injection. The relatively low frequency and magnitude of earthquakes in Michigan are attributed to its stable geologic setting.
