The overall average cost of car insurance in Reno is $165 per month, well below Nevada’s average rate of $244 per month, according to Insurify data.
Reno is home to tourist attractions comparable to larger urban centers. But its population is relatively small compared to other cities in Nevada, hence its moniker as the “biggest little city in the world.”[1] This may be why drivers in Reno pay lower rates than drivers in other parts of the state.
While Reno’s rates are more affordable than Nevada’s average, you can still score additional savings on your auto insurance policy by comparing quotes from multiple insurers.

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.

Terrible, I wouldn't ever recommend Country Financial to anyone. My policy kept increasing monthly without any explanation, despite not having any new accidents or tickets. They didn't offer many discounts and it became unaffordable very quickly.

My Experience with State Farm
Beware, some companies are more interested in making money than meeting the customers' needs. My wife had a medical issue while driving, and they covered it. A year later, there was a fender bender involving two moving vehicles. To me, it was no fault, but they considered it a second incident. We also had hail damage to our roof. They said there wasn't enough damage, yet my next-door neighbors received a new one. Now, they're canceling me for too much.

How to get the cheapest car insurance in Reno
The cheapest car insurance doesn’t always offer the best coverage for your needs. Before deciding, you should first consider various factors, such as customer service, financial stability, and coverage options.
Still, you’ll want to score a good deal on your car insurance to afford your monthly premiums. Here are some ways you can save money on your policy:[2]
Compare quotes. Gather quotes from at least three reputable insurance companies. Ensure that your coverage limits are the same across the board for the most accurate comparison.
Apply for discounts. Check your insurer’s website for the discounts you may qualify for. Many insurance companies offer discounts for bundling insurance products, being a safe driver, or being part of an affiliated group.
Keep your risk level low. Having a clean driving record, a good credit score, and driving a safe vehicle can lower your risk profile, which may result in cheaper rates.
Carefully evaluate coverages. You may not need all the extra coverage options an insurer offers. You can lower insurance premiums by only purchasing the coverage you require, or increasing your collision and comprehensive deductibles.

Cheapest liability-only car insurance in Reno: COUNTRY Financial
A liability-only car insurance policy covers damages and injuries that you cause to others. While this basic insurance is usually the most affordable policy a company offers, coverage excludes your medical expenses and vehicle repairs.

Drivers in Reno pay an average of $119 per month for liability-only car insurance. Below are the average monthly liability-only car insurance rates from insurers serving the Reno area.
The below rates are estimated rates current as of: Sunday, December 1 at 11:00 AM PST.

Cheapest full-coverage car insurance in Reno: COUNTRY Financial
Full-coverage car insurance covers your losses or damages regardless of who caused the accident by including collision and comprehensive coverage alongside liability coverage.
Though more expensive than a liability-only policy, this all-inclusive coverage may be worth the extra cost for drivers who spend considerable time behind the wheel, people who drive in high-risk areas, or people with expensive cars. And if you lease or finance your vehicle, your leasing company or lender will require you to buy full coverage car insurance.
Drivers in Reno pay an average of $211 per month for full-coverage car insurance. If you prioritize complete protection, the companies below offer the cheapest full-coverage rates in Reno.

Coverage
▲▼
Minimum Requirements

Bodily injury liability
$25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident
Property damage liability
$20,000 per accident
Car accidents can amount to thousands of dollars in car repairs, medical expenses, legal fees, and more. Your auto insurance policy steps in so you don’t have to pay out of pocket in unanticipated costs. Consider these additional coverages for more peace of mind on the road:
Collision coverage

Comprehensive coverage
Comprehensive insurance covers losses and damages from non-collision-related incidents, like theft, vandalism, or natural disasters.
Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage
Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage takes care of coverage gaps if you sustain damages or injuries in an accident where the other person is responsible but lacks sufficient insurance.
Personal injury protection (PIP) coverage
Personal injury protection pays for you and your passenger’s medical expenses if you’re injured in a vehicle accident so that you can receive medical care immediately.
Cheapest car insurance in Reno for drivers with an incident
Driving incidents like at-fault accidents, speeding tickets, driving under the influence (DUI), or other moving violations may cause an increase in your auto insurance rates. Incidents indicate to insurers that you’re a risky driver, which often leads them to raise your premiums.
