Earthquake activity for the year was overall low. There were 1217 located earthquakes during 2019, which is well below the average of 1500-2500 earthquakes per year. About half of these earthquakes occurred as part of 11 separate earthquake swarms. This is not unusual, since swarms account for roughly 50% of the total seismicity in the Yellowstone region.
