Average Car Insurance by State: What Drivers Actually Paid
Pick a state to see the three figures the NAIC publishes for it, each divided by twelve for a monthly view, set against the countrywide average and against the states next door. These are averages of premiums that drivers in the state actually paid, compiled from what insurers reported to regulators. They are not quotes and they are not an estimate for any one driver.

Bordering states on the same measure. Crossing a state line changes the rating territory, the tort rules and the mandatory coverages all at once, which is why the NAIC warns against reading these differences as a like-for-like price comparison.
Spend is the average expenditure per month. The combined and liability columns show on a wider screen, and on each state page.
What these numbers are, and what the NAIC says about comparing them
The NAIC notes that state results reflect a complex set of state-specific factors and that direct comparisons between states should be treated with a high degree of caution.
