By the way, not sure where you are getting your 130k-150k number, but this says you have an extra zero on each of those: http://earthquaketrack.com/us-tx-dallas/recent

Thanks for the accurate information on the epicenter.

Do home owner's insurance policies usually cover earthquake damage? Or do they require separate riders or policies?

coverage is sold separately and most companies offer with a pretty steep deductible; often as much as 10-20% for base rates

Sounds like it can get expensive--hope these quakes don't increase in frequency or amplitude. Thanks.

You can get coverage in Dallas for cheap with a 2 percent deductible per the DMN today.

I drove through there this weekend and realized I had kind of forgotten about the earthquakes.

Everyone says it is Balcones fault. Maybe, just maybe, it is someone else's fault. Poor old Balcones gets blamed for everything.
