I have a 1993 Accord and the recommended interval is 90,000 miles. I
have 149,200 miles on the car now and changed the timing belt(& water
pump) at 102,000. I don't plan to change it again until 200,000 miles.

Re: When to Change Timing Belt????
There should be inpection holes so you can see the belts condition. Is
it a interfering engine or a "free wheeling " engine. beter find that
out because if it is a interfering and the belt breaks...oh boy what an
expense. Valves hitting pistons and bending valves and possibly
puttting holes in the pistons. I had a car towed to me once and the
people said it just died. so i took at the inspection holes where the
belt is and it was ripped up. I next turn the engine over manually and
i noticed it was acting funny. Turns out it they negelcted to change
the belt. It ended up being cheaper to replace the engine. the cost
of new pistons and valves and labor expense was more than a rebulit
engine............

You've only told us ONE THIRD of the equation. We'd have to know WHEN
the belt was changed as well. Your LOCATION is important too, since you
could be in Alaska and not own a garage or a block heater. Your Owner's
Manual tells you how to figure it out.
