Volcanos tend to form at the points where tectonic plates meet. One notable exception is Hawaii, which is formed over a hot spot in the middle of the pacific plate.

Volcanoes are generally found in the "Pacific Rim" which is a ring of volcanoes going from Japan to Mexico curving up through Russia. This is where most Volcanoes are found.
