Earthquakes in Mexico — November 2025

52 earthquakes were recorded in Mexico during November 2025, an average of 1.7 per day.

13 reached magnitude 4 or above and 2 reached magnitude 5 or above. The average focal depth was 25 km.

The month's largest event in Mexico was a magnitude 5.6 earthquake near Santa Rosalía, Mexico on 07 November 2025 at 12:04 UTC. A magnitude 5.6 earthquake radiates roughly 3,788 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

That is close to the Mexico monthly average of 47 events over the period we cover, and up from the 32 recorded the previous month.

92% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 8% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). Almost everything here is crustal. That is characteristic of transform faulting or continental deformation rather than subduction — and it means shaking at the surface is strong for the magnitudes involved.

By band, the catalogue holds 1 in the magnitude 0 range, 12 in the magnitude 1 range, 21 in the magnitude 2 range, 5 in the magnitude 3 range, 11 in the magnitude 4 range, 2 in the magnitude 5 range.

Activity peaked on 29 November, when 12 events were recorded.

The month's largest events were M5.6 near Santa Rosalía, Mexico on 07 November at 10 km; M5.0 near Las Choapas, Mexico on 02 November at 192 km; M4.8 near Santa Rosalía, Mexico on 06 November at 4 km.

That is 10% above the 47 events Mexico averages per month across the 21 months on record.
