Earthquake insurance coverage

I’m curious if people are buying it for their Brooklyn homes.  Seems like it’s around an extra $1000 a year depending on carrier.  Thanks

Sounds worth it to me. The reason you have not heard of damage is because the plates of the earth under ny are way overdue for a big one…could happen any day.  brick brownstones will crumble.

seems totally unnecessary imho  –  when have you heard of an earthquake that has caused any damage in the NYC area?
