Zemmouri is a town and commune in Boumerdès Province, Algeria. According to the 1998 census it has a population of 21,012.
The disastrous 2003 Boumerdès earthquake led to the discovery of a thrust fault; it was subsequently named after the town. The fault has since been incorporated into seismic hazard maps, which will serve as an important guideline for public safety.
