I want to inquire if Tokyo has a good chance of getting hit by an earthquake.
Thanks for your time....


Routinely.  Mt. Fuji is a dormant volcano.  Japan as an island groups is
primarily volcanic.  Since they are on the edge of one of the pacific
tectonic plates, they experience multiple tremors monthly.   Consider the
Kobe earthquake a few years back.  They're not that far from Tokyo, really.
