Solar eclipses occur more often than lunar eclipses because in a lunar eclipse, the moon has to be perfectly aligned with both the earth and the sun.
Solar eclipses occur about 2 to 4 times per year, but the area on the ground covered by totality is only about 50 miles wide. In any given location on Earth, a total eclipse happens only once every hundred years or so, though for selected locations they can occur as little as a few years apart.
Eclipses of the Moon by the Earth's shadow occur less often than solar eclipses, however, each lunar eclipse is visible from over half the Earth. At any given location, you can have up to three lunar eclipses per year, but some years there may be none.
In any one calendar year, the maximum number of eclipses is four solar and three lunar.
