So far, we have received 4 reports for this unconfirmed quake from Mexico. The quake was reported to have been felt in up to approx. 50–60 km (31–37 mi) distance.Most reports came from Coyoacan (1 report), a city with more than 610,000 inhabitants in Ciudad de Mexico in 52 km (32 mi) distance northwest of the epicenter, Mexico, Yautepec (1 report), a city with more than 110,000 inhabitants in Estado de Morelos in 35 km (22 mi) distance southwest of the epicenter, and Mexico City (1 report) (55 km or 34 mi to the northwest), the capital of Mexico with 12,000,000 inhabitants in Ciudad de Mexico.

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!Number of reports by intensityShaking intensityNumber of reportsMin-Max distance from epicenter (*)Average distance (*)II: Very weak shaking331–58 km (19.4–36 mi)47 km (29 mi)III: Weak shaking10–0 km (0–0 mi)0 km (0 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (4 in total) could be used for geographic statistics.Get the Android appI didn't feel itI felt this quakeIf you were near the epicenter and felt it, please share your experience and submit a short "I felt it" report!

Your contribution is valuable to earthquake science and seismic hazard analysis.Compare Quake DataData for the same earthquake as reported by different agenciesThe more agencies report about the same quake and post similar data, the more confidence you can have in the data.

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.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
