One of the Most Dangerous Earthquake Faults in the US is Not in California
Briefly

The New Madrid Seismic Zone poses a grave risk not only to its immediate vicinity but also to surrounding states, with potential significant damage affecting about 12 million people.
The Cascadia Subduction Zone, while not as famous, presents a substantial tsunami risk along the Pacific Coast due to its potential for registering high magnitude earthquakes.
In California, the San Andreas Fault's historical trends suggest we may be nearing the overdue timeline for a significant earthquake, impacting millions living in suburban regions.
Many people mistakenly believe they are safe from earthquakes if they are not on the West Coast, yet dangers like the New Madrid and other faults exist widely.
