Correct, illinois is VERY active however most of the tremmors go unnoticed by people. 5.4 is larger then most but there was a special a few years back about how Midwest expiriences many earthquakes throughout the day.

Re: earthquake

I'm glad we don't get earthquakes down here but I guess we get enough hurricanes and sinkholes to make up for it.
