The last major earthquake was in the 1930s and what was then mostly a few towns is now a large, crowded urban metropolis. The combination of weak buildings and the cities many old Newar-style houses and a preference for narrow streets helps to worsen the danger from the next earthquake - which no one knows whence will strike.
