I'd still take quakes over tornadoes...
And usually a tornado watch has been issued a good time in advance usually many hours. If you are ever in an 8 or 9 earthquake you'll change your mind. I would not want to live near the New Madrid fault, and I'm not going to want to live in Charleston, SC for that reason either, and the 1886 earthquake did more damage than Hurricane Hugo did. That earthquake rang bells in Boston! It's overdue for that fault to fracture again. Right now I would not want to be in Indonesia. Something big is going to blow up.
