Average cost of car insurance in Rialto, CA

Drivers in Rialto, California, pay average monthly car insurance rates of $106 for liability insurance and $216 for full-coverage car insurance, according to Insurify data. 

Overall, Rialto drivers pay $161 per month on average for insurance. Rialto’s rates are also similar to nearby larger cities like San Bernardino and Riverside, where drivers pay $161 and $154 per month, respectively.

But car insurance costs in Rialto are slightly more than in neighboring smaller towns such as Beaumont and Redlands, likely due to its higher population density, which increases car accident risk.

Another reason for the higher rates may be Rialto’s location in San Bernardino County, which ranks No. 14 in the country for vehicle theft volume.[1]

Cheapest Rialto car insurance by coverage level

You can find the cheapest minimum-coverage car insurance in Rialto through USAA, at $71 per month. Aspire General offers the lowest full-coverage policies in the city, with a monthly average of $132.

The city’s premiums are close to the overall monthly averages in California of $98 for liability and $203 for full coverage.

To drive legally in the city, you’ll need to meet California’s 30/60/15 minimum liability requirements. You must carry at least $30,000 per person and $60,000 per accident of bodily injury liability coverage and $15,000 of property damage liability coverage.[2]

Though California doesn’t require full-coverage auto insurance, it might be worth it due to San Bernardino County’s higher vehicle theft rates. A full-coverage policy can protect you from theft and extreme weather events, such as flooding, which is a concern in Rialto and included in the city’s Climate Adaptation Plan.[3] [4]

Here’s a look at the lowest liability-only and full-coverage premiums in Rialto, California, according to Insurify data.

Tips for driving in Rialto

Whether you’re going to catch a show at the Rialto Square Theatre, checking out some Route 66 landmarks on Foothill Boulevard, or cruising down Riverside Avenue, it’s good to be prepared while driving around.

Here are a few tips to keep in mind as you drive in and around Rialto:

  • Parking: The City of Rialto requires all private property vehicles to be in garages or driveways. Parking on the front lawn or on an unpaved surface is a violation. Visibly abandoned vehicles are also illegal. Downtown Rialto has many free spots and timed lots along Riverside Avenue.

  • Truck traffic: Rialto is home to multiple large distribution centers for major companies. To help combat heavy truck traffic, Rialto has created designated truck routes. It’s a good idea to review them so you know when to leave early and/or find alternative routes.

  • Commuter traffic: Rialto has a large commuter population that works in San Bernardino, Los Angeles, and the larger Inland Empire. Interstate 10, state Route 210, and Route 66 all connect Rialto drivers to other cities and experience rush-hour traffic.

  • Flooding: Rialto is prone to flash floods. That’s why you might want to buy a full-coverage policy that helps protect against flood-related damage. Liability-only insurance won’t cover it.

Methodology

Insurify data scientists analyzed more than 250 million quotes served to car insurance applicants in Insurify’s proprietary database to calculate the premium averages displayed on this page. These premiums are real quotes that come directly from Insurify’s 500+ partner insurance companies in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Quote averages represent the median price for a quote across the given coverage level, driver subset, and geographic area.

Unless otherwise specified, quoted rates reflect the average cost for drivers between 20 and 70 years old with a clean driving record and average or better credit (a credit score of 600 or higher).

Liability-only premium averages correspond to policies with the following coverage limits:

  • Bodily injury limits between state-minimum rates and $50,000 per person, $100,000 per accident
  • Property damage limits between $10,000 and $50,000
  • No additional coverage
Full-coverage premium averages correspond to the same bodily injury and property damage limits in addition to:
  • Comprehensive coverage with a $1,000 deductible
  • Collision coverage with a $1,000 deductible
