People likely experienced very weak shaking there. Several smaller towns and villages are located closer to the epicenter and might have experienced stronger shaking. In the capital of the Philippines, Manila, 207 km (129 mi) away from the epicenter, the earthquake could not be felt.The following table shows some of the places that might have been affected (or not) by the shaking.DistancePlaceMax. shaking intensity(*)RegionCountry60 km (37 mi)E of epicenterBolitoc(pop: 3,130)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines62 km (39 mi)NE of epicenterIlioilio(pop: 2,120)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines64 km (40 mi)E of epicenterSanta Cruz(pop: 66,600)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines64 km (40 mi)E of epicenterMalabon(pop: 2,640)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines66 km (41 mi)E of epicenterMasinloc(pop: 56,600)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines68 km (43 mi)E of epicenterBulawin(pop: 3,610)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines69 km (43 mi)NE of epicenterEguia(pop: 3,030)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines70 km (44 mi)E of epicenterAmungan(pop: 12,400)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines74 km (46 mi)E of epicenterIba(pop: 26,900)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines80 km (50 mi)SE of epicenterBotolan(pop: 23,000)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines94 km (58 mi)NE of epicenterAlaminos(pop: 10,500)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines97 km (60 mi)SE of epicenterPoblacion, San Felipe(pop: 15,000)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines99 km (61 mi)NE of epicenterAgoo(pop: 29,000)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines101 km (63 mi)SE of epicenterSan Narciso(pop: 32,200)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines107 km (66 mi)SE of epicenterSan Antonio(pop: 38,600)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines107 km (67 mi)NE of epicenterLingayen(pop: 56,600)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines111 km (69 mi)NE of epicenterBinmaley(pop: 44,000)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines116 km (72 mi)E of epicenterCamiling(pop: 39,700)II: Very weakProvince of Tarlac, Central LuzonPhilippines118 km (73 mi)NE of epicenterDagupan(pop: 171,300)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines119 km (74 mi)NE of epicenterCalasiao(pop: 100,700)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines122 km (76 mi)E of epicenterBayambang(pop: 129,500)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines123 km (77 mi)SE of epicenterSubic(pop: 67,700)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines126 km (78 mi)NE of epicenterMangaldan(pop: 88,800)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines131 km (82 mi)SE of epicenterOlongapo(pop: 221,200)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines133 km (83 mi)NE of epicenterManaoag(pop: 59,100)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines133 km (83 mi)E of epicenterPaniqui(pop: 106,200)II: Very weakProvince of Tarlac, Central LuzonPhilippines135 km (84 mi)E of epicenterTarlac City(pop: 401,900)II: Very weakProvince of Tarlac, Central LuzonPhilippines136 km (84 mi)E of epicenterBamban(pop: 78,300)II: Very weakProvince of Tarlac, Central LuzonPhilippines137 km (85 mi)E of epicenterCapas(pop: 162,700)II: Very weakProvince of Tarlac, Central LuzonPhilippines138 km (86 mi)E of epicenterMabalacat City(pop: 188,100)II: Very weakProvince of Pampanga, Central LuzonPhilippines138 km (86 mi)E of epicenterVillasis(pop: 65,100)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines139 km (86 mi)E of epicenterUrdaneta(pop: 145,900)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines140 km (87 mi)E of epicenterSantol(pop: 299,000)II: Very weakProvince of Pampanga, Central LuzonPhilippines142 km (88 mi)E of epicenterAngeles City(pop: 483,500)II: Very weakProvince of Pampanga, Central LuzonPhilippines143 km (89 mi)SE of epicenterDinalupihan(pop: 66,700)II: Very weakProvince of Bataan, Central LuzonPhilippines143 km (89 mi)E of epicenterRosales(pop: 67,500)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines150 km (93 mi)NE of epicenterBauang(pop: 77,700)II: Very weakProvince of La Union, IlocosPhilippines163 km (101 mi)NE of epicenterBaguio(pop: 272,700)I: Not feltProvince of Benguet, Cordillera Administrative RegionPhilippines165 km (103 mi)NE of epicenterLa Trinidad(pop: 142,900)I: Not feltProvince of Benguet, Cordillera Administrative RegionPhilippines207 km (129 mi)SE of epicenterManila(pop: 1,600,000)I: Not feltCapital, National Capital RegionPhilippinesNotes:(*) Shaking intensity according to the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) and estimated using seismic models.User-reports for this quakeThere are no user reports for this quake yet.If you felt it, be the first to report it!Get the Android appCompare 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 2 quakes above magnitude 7 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 60 to 65 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
