Living in the Sunshine State comes with plenty of perks, but cheap car insurance isn’t one of them. Florida drivers pay around $189 per month for coverage — that’s about $50 more per month than most Americans pay.
Between the constant stream of tourists navigating unfamiliar roads and Florida’s rank as third in the nation for fatal crashes, insurers see drivers as a pretty risky bet.[1] Though average rates have decreased by about 10% since June 2024, rates are still expensive.
Fortunately, you can still find affordable insurance in the state by comparing quotes.
Quick Facts
State Farm, Mile Auto, and GEICO are a few of the cheapest car insurance companies in Florida.
Florida drivers pay $158 per month for liability coverage and $219 for full coverage.
Miami drivers pay the highest car insurance rates in the state, while Gainesville drivers pay the least.
How much is car insurance in Florida?
Florida car insurance costs aren’t exactly budget-friendly. Full-coverage car insurance sets you back about $219 per month, while the state’s minimum coverage runs around $158 per month. But this is just the average cost, and your actual prices could look a lot different.
Take age, for example: If you’re a teen driver, your monthly car insurance bill for full coverage may cost an average of $377. But for drivers in their 60s, that same coverage drops to a more manageable monthly premium of $192.
Below, you can compare average monthly car insurance quotes in Florida and nationwide.

Average Florida car insurance rates by city

Your insurance company considers many local factors — including traffic patterns, crime rates, and even the number of accidents in your neighborhood — to determine the risk in your area.
The below rates are estimated rates current as of: Wednesday, July 30 at 12:00 PM PDT.

Average Florida car insurance rates by age
Your age has a significant effect on your auto insurance bill. Teen drivers face the steepest costs since they’re still building their road experience and are statistically more likely to get into accidents. The good news is that these prices usually start dropping once you hit your mid-20s and continue to improve through your 30s and 40s as long as you maintain a clean driving record.
The table below breaks down average monthly quotes in Florida for liability-only and full-coverage car insurance.

How your driving record affects car insurance rates in Florida
Your driving record tells insurance companies in Florida a clear story about how likely you are to file a claim. Think of it as your road reputation — a speeding ticket, car accident, or traffic violation leaves its mark.
Even a minor accident could increase your average annual premium by hundreds of dollars per year. The better your record, the less you’ll typically pay. On average, drivers pay $216 per month with a past speeding ticket, $239 with a past accident, and $231 with a past DUI. Florida drivers with a clean record pay $189 per month.
This table breaks down what Florida residents pay, based on a sample driver profile with various driving incidents.
Driver Record | Average Monthly Quote | % Increase Compared to Good Drivers |
|---|---|---|
| Clean record | $189 | N/A |
| With speeding ticket | $216 | 14% |
| With accident | $239 | 26% |
| With DUI | $231 | 22% |

Not every state allows the use of credit history for car insurance purposes. But it’s completely legal for Florida insurance companies to review your credit history when determining your policy prices.[4] Insurers must let you know they’re requesting your credit information for review.
The better your credit, the lower your cost tends to be. Insurance companies have found that drivers with better credit typically file fewer claims, so insurers reward them with better prices.[5] If you have poor credit, don’t sweat it too much — while you might pay more than someone with excellent credit, it’s just one of many factors that determine your rate.

How to lower your insurance costs in Florida
Here are some things you can do to bring down your Florida car insurance costs:
Increase your deductible
Increasing your car insurance deductible is a quick way to lower your monthly payments, but make sure you have enough saved to cover that higher cost if you need to file a claim.
Review your coverage
You could potentially drop comprehensive insurance and go with state-minimum coverage on an older vehicle. You might also consider skipping rental car or roadside assistance coverage.
Leverage discounts
Bundle your policies, sign up for usage-based programs that track your driving, ask about savings for safe drivers, and choose auto pay for discounts on your policy.
Shop around
Compare quotes from more than one insurance company before deciding on a policy. It helps to check out regional and national brands when weighing your options.
Be practical when car shopping
A sporty convertible might look great cruising down A1A, but a more modest ride can keep your insurance costs in check. Smaller, less powerful cars typically mean smaller insurance bills.
Florida average car insurance cost FAQs
The following information can help answer your remaining questions about car insurance costs in Florida.
The average Florida driver pays about $2,266 per year for car insurance, but the average annual cost varies quite a bit. Full coverage is $2,630 per year, while state-minimum coverage runs $1,901 per year. Keep in mind these are just average annual costs, and your actual rates may vary.
State Farm typically offers the lowest rates in Florida, with a liability average of $93 per month. Remember, your car insurance rate will depend on many factors, including your driving record, your Florida address, your vehicle, your age, and whether you opt for state minimum coverage or higher limits.
Florida car insurance costs an average of $189 per month. Drivers pay about $219 for full coverage and $158 if you stick with basic liability insurance. But your monthly payment could be higher or lower depending on your situation and whether you need state-minimum coverage or more protection.
State Farm and GEICO typically top the list for affordable rates in Florida. But “best” means different things to different people. It really comes down to what matters most to you — whether that’s the lowest rates, excellent customer service, or quick claims handling.
Florida keeps it pretty basic with its minimum requirements for car insurance. You need at least $10,000 in personal injury protection (PIP) and $10,000 in property damage liability (PDL).[6] Keep in mind that minimum coverage isn’t always enough protection on Florida’s roads.
Methodology
Insurify data scientists analyzed more than 90 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
- Comprehensive coverage with a $1,000 deductible
- Collision coverage with a $1,000 deductible
Quotes for Allstate, Farmers, GEICO, State Farm, and USAA are estimates based on Quadrant Information Services’ database of auto insurance rates.
