State-minimum coverage averages $120 per month in Phoenix.
Phoenix’s car insurance rates are higher than the Arizona average.
Maricopa County had one of the highest auto theft rates in the U.S. in the first half of 2025.
Phoenix auto insurance costs an average of $120 per month for liability-only coverage. Full coverage in Phoenix averages $215 per month. Phoenix has higher average rates than the Arizona average.
Phoenix is Arizona’s most populous city, with more than 1.6 million residents.[1] The city draws a host of daily commuters and has high accident rates along the Interstate 17 and I-10 corridors.[2] Vehicle thefts are also high in Phoenix, which increases car insurance premiums.[3]
The following table shows the average liability car insurance rates in Phoenix, according to Insurify data.
Car Insurance Costs in Phoenix vs. Arizona  | Average Monthly Quote |
|---|---|
| Phoenix average | $168 |
| Arizona average | $126 |
Auto-Owners offers the cheapest auto insurance rates in Phoenix, averaging $64 per month. Auto-Owners has the best full-coverage rates, at an average of $115 per month.
Liability rates start as low as $64 per month
Phoenix is a rapidly growing city, and the population has increased by 5% since 2020. That brings lots of driving challenges, too. Suburban commuters driving into the city can cause congestion at the city’s intersecting Interstates.
Phoenix has one of the highest auto theft rates in the country. In January 2026, the Phoenix Police Department recorded 38 vehicle thefts per 100,000 people, compared to just 16 per 100,000 nationwide. Two of the three most popular cars in Phoenix — the Toyota Camry and the Honda Civic — ranked in the top 10 car models stolen nationwide in 2025.
It’s especially important to consider buying comprehensive coverage in Phoenix, because it covers theft. Full coverage typically costs more, but it’ll help pay to replace your car if someone steals it.
Phoenix and the village of Laveen are tied for the most expensive cities in Arizona for car insurance. The average cost of coverage is much higher than in nearby suburbs like Tempe and Scottsdale. Rates are typically much lower in Tucson, the next-largest metro area.
The risk of auto theft drops significantly once you get outside Phoenix. That’s likely one factor driving insurance costs down in those areas. Scottsdale, for example, had nearly 10 times fewer vehicle theft reports in January 2026 than Phoenix.
The following table shows the average car insurance rates in Phoenix compared to other Arizona cities, according to Insurify data.
City | Average Monthly Quote |
|---|---|
| Casa Grande | $123 |
| Chandler | $129 |
| Flagstaff | $97 |
| Glendale | $165 |
| Mesa | $138 |
| Phoenix | $168 |
| Scottsdale | $130 |
| Tempe | $146 |
| Tucson | $122 |
| Yuma | $102 |
Phoenix is Arizona’s largest city, so traffic can get pretty hectic. Several interstates and major highways loop through and around the city, bringing in scores of out-of-towners every day.
Of the city’s serious accidents, 11% of them occur on only 1% of the city’s roads, according to the City of Phoenix. Many of them are offshoots of the interstates.[4] Indian School Road is one area that the city has been working to improve. In 2023, the city received one of the largest road safety grants in the U.S. to help make the route safer.
Insurance companies often consider the roads you commonly drive on when setting your car insurance rates. If you live in or frequently travel through high-traffic areas, you’ll likely pay more for auto insurance. And in Phoenix, it’s hard to avoid these higher-risk areas.
Arizona law requires all drivers to have minimum liability insurance limits of 25/50/15. You need $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident of personal liability coverage, plus $15,000 of property damage liability.[5]
Phoenix drivers pay an average of $120 per month for liability coverage. But you may want to consider a full-coverage policy, given the city’s high vehicle theft rate.
If you want only minimum coverage, the following table shows the cheapest rates for liability-only car insurance in Phoenix, according to Insurify data.

Here are some quick answers to common auto insurance questions in Phoenix.
Auto-Owners is the cheapest car insurance company in Phoenix. But many factors affect your car insurance costs, including your age, ZIP code, and driving record.
Car insurance in Phoenix costs an average of $168 per month, according to Insurify data. Liability-only coverage averages $120 per month, and full coverage averages $215 per month.
Yes. Arizona requires drivers to purchase car insurance with at least $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident of bodily injury liability coverage. You also need $15,000 of property damage liability coverage.
Some of the most popular cars in Phoenix are also common targets of theft, such as the Toyota Camry and Honda Civic. You’ll pay more for car insurance if you live in an area with a high vehicle theft rate.

Getting quotes from multiple insurance companies is one of the best ways to lower premiums in Phoenix. Many insurers offer a variety of ways to save, including discounts for safe driving and installing a car alarm. You can also lower your monthly premium by increasing your deductible. Just make sure you can afford the extra out-of-pocket costs if you need to file a claim.

These premiums are real quotes that come directly from Insurify’s 500+ partner insurance companies in all 50 states and Washington, D.C.
