While the earthquake did not cause any significant damage and is not unusual in seismically active areas like California, it is relatively notable for the Boston area.

Reports of shaking were felt across a broad region, reaching as far as New Haven, Connecticut, and Albany, New York, as indicated by responses received by the U.S. Geological Survey.
