Inglewood car insurance rates are slightly lower than they are for drivers in Los Angeles proper, where rates average $301 per month for full coverage and $159 per month for liability-only coverage.

Cheapest Inglewood car insurance by coverage level

Inglewood drivers may get the lowest liability-only rates with USAA, which has an average premium of $92 per month. 

To meet California’s minimum liability coverage requirements, you need:[1]

  • $30,000 in bodily injury coverage for a single person

  • $60,000 in bodily injury coverage overall for a single accident

  • $15,000 in property damage coverage

To get cheap full-coverage car insurance, Inglewood drivers can consider Aspire General, which has average premiums of $172 per month. Given Inglewood’s high population density and heavy gridlock due to its proximity to LAX, SoFi Stadium, and the Kia Forum, collisions are always a risk. A full-coverage insurance policy could be a smart choice to manage the risk.

The following table shows the cheapest liability and full-coverage car insurance rates in Inglewood. Notably, average rates in Inglewood are higher than average California car insurance rates.

Tips for driving in Inglewood

Here are tips to stay safe when driving in Inglewood:

  • Avoid rush hour. The greater Los Angeles area has the worst traffic congestion in the country, according to TomTom’s Traffic Index data. Inglewood residents commute an average of 61 minutes each day, so avoid driving during rush hour, if possible.[2]

  • Pay attention to major events. Inglewood is located between LAX and downtown Los Angeles, which means streets are regularly congested. This can get worse during major events downtown, as well as events at Inglewood’s own SoFi Stadium and Kia Forum. Plan around these events to avoid major traffic jams.

  • Avoid parking tickets. To avoid a parking ticket when driving in Inglewood, pay attention to where you park. Because of Inglewood’s major sports and entertainment venues, the city enforces a strict residential parking permit program.

  • Lock your car and avoid street parking. The greater Los Angeles area has the nation’s highest volume of vehicle thefts, per National Insurance Crime Bureau data. Never leave valuables in your car in Inglewood, always lock your car, and, when possible, avoid street parking. If attending an event at an entertainment venue, take public transportation, use a rideshare service, or park in a monitored garage.

  • Avoid La Cienega and Centinela. The LA Times recently found that the La Cienega and Centinela intersection is among the 14 most dangerous in Los Angeles.[3]
