Are earthquakes in tokyo really bad?

Question:

i wanna no cuz ive always wanted to go to tokyo (even move there when im older) but everybody tells me earthquakes there are horible. Is that true? and how many time a month/year do they have earthquakes?

Answer:

NO, for short.

Usually a lot of smaller earthquakes occur after a huge earthquake.
In Tokyo, I have felt some quakes after 3.11.
You can see the history of them from this site:

But about 30 million people are living around Tokyo.
And after 3.11, I've never heard any damages caused by quakes.
