Earthquakes are stronger on the epicenter. Thus, it should be having more damage near the epicenter.

What is Epicenter?

Epicenter is the place or point where the earthquake originates. Epicenter is above the hypocenter. The hypocenter is the focus of the earthquake.  Technically, the intensity  of an earthquake gets higher as you get closer to the epicenter.

What is earthquake and how does it happen?

Earthquake pertains to the rapid and sudden shaking of the ground. It happens when two blocks of earth slips or past one another. The surface where they have slipped is called the fault plane. When some of the energy stored in the Earth's crust is released due to a fracture and slip on the rocks, seismic waves are produced. This passage of seismic waves through the Earth rocks now causes an Earthquake.
