I have been told that as most of New England sits on granite there is no reason to worry about sink holes.

However we have had some mini quakes in my area, that give one cause to wonder.  

Strange little occurrences, starts with a Boom, sounds like cannon fire.    Not a big Boom but enough to get one up and wander about the house to insure a cabinet or bureau did not fall over.


For the next 2-3 minutes nothing, then the glass ware begins to shake and china ware jumping just a small bit but enough to make one stand back.

Last one we had it ran under the house in a straight line.  Not but 6 " wide or so but not something that happens more then every 10 years.

The story we got next day was there had been some kind of break in the granite 3 miles down,  the boom was the sound of the break. The shaking was the result of sound waves.

Strange how this works, California we had some small shakes while a mile up the road the homes fell over.

Sink Holes I expect in old city's with water pipes 100 years old.   Come to think about it most of our city's have older pipes, repairing some old plumbing we found a 200 year old burial ground for the slaves at the time.  What to do the city had grown up and now the cemetery was smack dab in the middle of a main street.

And life goes on, just as it has since the beginning of Time.
