When I lived there, we had a 3.8. FC turned to liquid and nearly all of the homes developed cracks and caused a lot of damage. I lived in San Carlos on the hil (rock) and nothing happened.

Well if it is compacted properly it can be safe, however the reason you no longer see this is one the compaction rate is to hard to achieve and landfills produce dangerous meth gases from the decaying garbage. Nowdays most landfills become parks. I am familar with the bay area and Foster City ( I used to love going to the ice skating rink there) is surrounded by wetlands and is only a few feet over the level of the San Fransico Bay, the biggest problem is probably Liquafaction from earthquakes, and settling.

I don't know about that, but my whole community was built on top of a landfill/dump and the houses now are over 10 years old. We have no problems.

Half of Boston is build on landfill. Have you heard of the Big Dig. Yeah. There are problems alright.

I would imagine so. A landfill is not exactly solid ground!
