i think the whole area is not as active a quake area as others like in Califoirnia, but the type of fault zone we have is much more dangerous when a big quake happens as the plates don't rumble here but will move up and down causing damage on a bigger scale then the other kinds of earthquakes like what the San Andreas fault cause. I can't remember feeling any of the minor ones and yes, I believe the last few little ones have happened around Seattle and not here.
