Analyzing Earthquakes in Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico has been experiencing atypical seismic activity since November 2019.
My mother’s hometown, Ponce, has been hit badly by the recent earthquakes. A cousin asked me to “play with some data” and turns out that the USGS maintains great data on seismic activity in the Caribbean. I focused on coordinates close to PR to produce the attached visual. I’ll revisit this visualization in a few months when more data becomes available!
