Muy a menudo vs. Con frecuencia

I‘ve noticed that sometimes Spanish speaking peolple will use 'Con frecuencia' instead of 'Muy a menudo' for 'Very often'.

Are both interchangeable?

And does this vary from country to country?

Literally in English, "at/with what frequency" sounds scientific, while "how often" sounds popular.

But "How frequently do you come here?" (same root word) is also popular. - samdie, DIC 23, 2009

¿Con qué frecuencia vienes aquí? Vengo aquí muy a menudo. How often do you come here? I come here very often.

frecuentamente

acostumbradamente

Most words change nuances slightly, but yes, they would normally be synonymous.
