Car insurance in Jacksonville runs a bit higher than the Florida average, with drivers paying an average of $133 per month for state-minimum coverage and $227 per month for full coverage.
Jacksonville drivers pay less than Tampa drivers, who pay an average of $231 per month. Rates in Gainesville average $152 per month. That’s why drivers should shop around to find the best rates in Florida.
Jacksonville’s car insurance rates are higher than the state average, partly due to its coastal location. Hurricane risk, including storm surge and flooding along the St. Johns River, can push rates higher.[1] Still, the city’s 24-minute average commute is shorter than Florida’s 28-minute average.[2]
Progressive is the cheapest insurer in Jacksonville for liability-only coverage, at $74 per month. That’s significantly less than the city average of $180 per month and more affordable than for full-coverage policies.
Florida’s minimum auto insurance requirements are fairly low compared to those of other states. Drivers must carry at least $10,000 in personal injury protection (PIP) and $10,000 in property damage liability (PDL).[3] Unlike most states, bodily injury liability is optional in Florida.
The table below shows the cheapest rates for liability-only car insurance in Jacksonville.

State Farm offers the cheapest rates in Jacksonville for full-coverage car insurance, at $127 per month. Full coverage typically includes liability, collision coverage, and comprehensive coverage, which is why it costs more than the state minimum.
At $227 per month, Jacksonville drivers pay less for full coverage than drivers in Tampa and Orlando, at $283 per month and $248 per month, respectively.
Hurricane flooding along the St. Johns River is a real risk for Jacksonville drivers, and only comprehensive coverage pays for that kind of damage — along with theft and vandalism.
Check out the table below to compare the cheapest full-coverage rates for Jacksonville drivers.

Venice drivers pay the lowest auto insurance rates, while drivers in Miami Gardens pay the highest rates. Drivers in Jacksonville pay $180 per month, on average — more than the statewide average.
Rates in nearby Daytona Beach are slightly more expensive, but Jacksonville remains a relative bargain compared to Tampa, one of the state’s priciest cities for car insurance, at $231 per month.
Flooding risk contributes to the difference in rates. Jacksonville gets hit from three directions: exposure from the coast, heavy inland rainfall, and the St. Johns River, whose tributaries overflow into low-lying neighborhoods during the rainy season. Flooded vehicles can lead to comprehensive claims, which can raise premiums for everyone.

Insurify Car makes it affordable and easy to get same-day liability coverage
Several factors explain why Jacksonville’s insurance costs are higher than the Florida average and other cities in the state.
Jacksonville drivers have more tickets and at-fault accidents than the state average. The Jacksonville metro also ranks No. 47 nationally by theft volume, with 1,240 stolen vehicles in the first half of 2025, according to Insurify data. And during hurricane season, flooding can lead to a surge in comprehensive claims.
Stacking car insurance discounts can help Jacksonville drivers offset these costs. Safe driver discounts, bundling your auto policy and homeowners policies, and signing up for paperless billing are common ways to save.

Car insurance premiums for Jacksonville drivers with a clean driving history average $180 per month. A driving under the influence (DUI) conviction classifies you as a high-risk driver, causing rates to climb to $235 per month. It’s a noticeable gap that makes shopping for quotes worth the effort.
Here are the cheapest insurance quotes in Jacksonville based on driving history.

About 4.68% of Jacksonville drivers have a speeding ticket — roughly 1.5% percentage points higher than the Florida state average. Jacksonville drivers have a 4.78% at-fault accident rate, and 0.78% have a DUI, according to Insurify data.
Florida is a no-fault state, which means drivers file claims with their own insurer after a crash, regardless of who caused the accident. That means any incident can lead to higher premiums at renewal for Jacksonville drivers.
Check out the table below to see average monthly quotes for different driving records in Jacksonville.
Driving Record | Average Monthly Quote |
|---|---|
| Clean driving record | $180 |
| Speeding ticket | $211 |
| At-fault accident | $229 |
| DUI | $235 |
Jacksonville drivers rely heavily on three interstates: I-95 runs through downtown, I-10 ends at the I-95 interchange just northwest of downtown, and I-295 loops the metro as the Beltway.
Multiple bridges across the St. Johns River — including the Acosta, Buckman, Dames Point, Fuller Warren, Hart, Main Street, and Mathews bridges — funnel traffic between neighborhoods. Any one of them can become a chokepoint after a crash or closure.
A high share of uninsured drivers is another thing to consider. In Duval County, 7.15% of drivers don’t have car insurance, compared to 5.58% statewide, according to Florida Department of Highway Safety data.
This means Jacksonville drivers are more likely than the average Floridian to share the road with someone whose insurance policy won’t cover damage after a crash. You may want to consider adding uninsured motorist coverage, even though Florida doesn’t require it.
With an average commute of about 24 minutes, Jacksonville drivers spend less time in traffic than most U.S. workers. Congestion at the Interstate 95/I-10 interchange, the I-295 Beltway, and across the area’s bridges can still cause plenty of fender benders that can push rates up across Duval County.
Florida authorized school-zone speed cameras in 2023.[4]They’re still rare in Duval County, but nearby Neptune Beach has installed them to monitor speeding during school hours.[5] Even where those cameras are in place, tickets don’t come with license points, so they don’t affect insurance rates.
Teen drivers were involved in approximately 4,600 crashes in Duval County in 2023, a significant share of the city’s total crashes.[6] In Florida, 16-year-olds can’t drive between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m., and they must have a learner’s permit for a full year before they can get a license.
Insurers consider teens high risk and charge more for coverage. The average cost of insurance for teen drivers in Jacksonville is $227 per month for liability coverage and $387 per month for full coverage.
The cheapest rates for teen drivers in Jacksonville are in the table below.

Duval County drivers aged 55 and older may qualify for a 10% discount after completing a state-approved mature driver course, which can help reduce costs.[7]
