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 shaking256–67 km (35–41 mi)62 km (38 mi)III: Weak shaking316.4–49 km (10.2–30 mi)28 km (17 mi)IV: Light shaking148–48 km (30–30 mi)48 km (30 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (16 in total) could be used for geographic statistics.I 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!

It has had at least 3 quakes above magnitude 7 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 40 to 45 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquakeThe possible quake occurred 1 hour and 50 minutes after a magnitude 3.4 earthquake had hit on Sunday, Jul 6, 2025, at 02:04 pm local time (America/Costa Rica GMT -6) in 19 km (12 mi) distance to the east:Mag. 3.4 earthquake Provincia de Puntarenas - 45 km southwest of San Jose, Costa Rica - The largest quake near the epicenter of this quake during the 10 years before was an event of magnitude 6.0.
