Cheapest Car Insurance by State

However, some states have cheaper car insurance than others. Below you can get a general idea of how states rank on average costs.

In some states, the smaller, local companies offer the cheapest car insurance. In others, national providers offer the best rates. One company that may be expensive in Nevada may offer some of the lowest rates available in Pennsylvania. While USAA is often the cheapest provider in most states, it’s not available to everyone due to eligibility requirements.
