Drivers in Anaheim pay an average of $156 per month for car insurance. The city’s rates are slightly lower than California’s average of $141 and well below the national average of $136 per month.
Anaheim has a smaller population than other major California cities, including Los Angeles and San Diego.[1] But it’s home to Disneyland, which saw an estimated 16.8 million visitors in 2022.[2] The presence of tourists increases accident risks, which may contribute to Anaheim’s slightly higher rates.
Rates vary between insurers, though, so it’s important to compare car insurance quotes from multiple companies to find the best rate.
Quick Facts
USAA, National General, and Sun Coast are the cheapest car insurance companies for Anaheim residents.
California is an at-fault state for car insurance.

Our editorial team spent more than 350 hours developing the Insurify Quality (IQ) Score and scoring insurance companies. The IQ Score objectively analyzes and calculates a score for insurers using more than 15 crucial criteria. The team weighted criteria by importance to the consumer — factors such as customer reviews and affordability influence the score more than availability and third-party ratings.
We rate each company on a 1 to 10 scale based on five categories: financial ratings, customer satisfaction, affordability, customer support and transparency, and availability. Insurify updates ratings once a year or as more recent information becomes available.
- Third-party financial ratings: Insurify uses data from AM Best, S&P, Moody’s, and more to compare insurance companies’ credit and ability to pay out future claims.
- Customer satisfaction: To calculate this score, Insurify analyzed more than 55,000 customer reviews across 155 car insurance companies. We also consider third-party ratings from J.D. Power, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, and Trustpilot.
- Affordability: Our data scientists analyzed more than 90 million real-time auto insurance rates from our partners across the U.S., as well as available discounts, to calculate an affordability score.
- Customer support and transparency: This measures coverage options, ease of claims filing, and the insurer's transparency surrounding discounts, coverages, and claims process.
- Availability and reach: Insurify scores availability and reach by identifying the number of states in which insurers offer coverage and company size by market share.

My Experience with Mercury Insurance
Reviewed in California on February 1, 2026
My experience with Mercury is excellent. I have had the same agent ever since I first signed up with them, I believe, in the late 1990s. They have discounts I had never heard of and answer all questions immediately. My car is a 2016 Toyota Rav4 LE. I've always had full coverage, I drive very little, I bought it brand new, and I only have 37,389 miles on it, no tickets, no accidents, and no DUI ever. However, my insurance has doubled! I'm retired and live on Social Security. I can't afford insurance that used to be $645.76 per year in 2022, $908.76 per year in 2024, and $1,289.76 in 2025! My question is why is my insurance going up so much when I'm a good driver, have very low mileage, no accidents, and no tickets?

I'm not happy with the rental car costs
Reviewed in Maryland on February 11, 2026
It's sad. I've been paying full coverage since I bought the vehicle in November 2017. Someone hit the back of my truck when it wasn't occupied, and no witness came forward. Now I have to pay a $500 deductible and $40 a day for a rental. I don't think it's right that I have to spend money on a vehicle I already pay insurance for.

How to get the cheapest car insurance in Anaheim
Insurers consider a variety of factors when setting your insurance rates, including your age, driving record, and location. Each company weighs these factors differently, so you’ll need to shop around to find the cheapest car insurance in Anaheim.
Here are some tips you can use to find the most affordable option for your unique situation:
Apply for discounts. Auto insurance companies usually offer various discounts that can help you save money, such as good student and defensive driver discounts.
Bundle your home and auto insurance policies. Bundling your car insurance with homeowners, renters, or even life insurance could land you a discount on coverage.
Select a higher deductible. A higher deductible means a lower premium. But be sure you can afford to pay it out of pocket if you need to file a claim.
Maintain a clean driving record. Drivers with clean records pay the cheapest premiums. Drive responsibly and avoid traffic violations.
Shop around. Compare quotes from at least three car insurance companies before buying a policy. Insurance companies weigh factors differently, so you may find cheaper rates for the same coverage from certain companies.

Cheapest car insurance for drivers with an incident

Cheapest car insurance for drivers with a DUI: USAA
