If you’re in Connecticut, your monthly cost for full coverage car insurance is $227, which adds up to $2,726 per year. For minimum coverage, expect to pay an average of $87 monthly, or $1,039 a year.

Insurance companies calculate your premiums based partly on where you live. They consider factors such as traffic and accident rates, the number of car thefts in your area, and how expensive it is to repair your vehicle.

If you live in a busy city with heavy traffic and high theft rates, you’ll likely pay more for car insurance than someone in a rural area with fewer cars on the road and lower accident risks.

Other than location, your age, driving history, credit score and ZIP code also influence your insurance rates.

Average cost of car insurance by coverage levels in Connecticut

Your car insurance cost largely comes down to the coverage limits you pick.

If you’re just looking to meet the state’s minimum requirements, you can expect to pay around $87 a month, or about $1,039 a year. It’s an affordable option, but remember that it only covers liability, so damages to your car won’t be covered.

For more complete protection, you may want to go with full coverage instead. Full coverage car insurance includes liability, collision and comprehensive coverage. Collision coverage covers damage to your car from accidents, regardless of fault. Comprehensive coverage protects against non-collision damages, like theft, vandalism and weather events.

On average, drivers in Connecticut pay around $227 per month, or roughly $2,726 a year for full coverage. It’s a bit more expensive, but it can be worth the extra cost, especially if your car is new or financed.

Coverage limitsAverage annual cost
State minimum liability-only$1,039
Liability only$1,119
Full coverage$2,726
Non-owner state minimum liability$991

Average car insurance cost in Connecticut by city

Because car insurance rates vary by location, the city you live in also affects how much you pay. If you’re in cities like Bridgeport, Hartford or New Haven, you’ll likely see higher premiums because of high traffic and accident rates, and greater risk of theft or damage.

On the other hand, drivers in cities like Bristol or Norwalk pay significantly low insurance rates, on average between $2,540 and $2,688 a year. Insurers typically charge lower premiums in these cities due to fewer accidents, lower population density, vehicle theft and vandalism rates.

CityAverage annual cost
Bristol$2,540
Norwalk$2,688
Stamford$2,878
New Britain$2,928

Average car insurance cost in Connecticut by age

Age is one of the most important factors insurers consider when pricing car insurance. Young drivers usually pay more because insurers see them as higher risk due to their limited experience behind the wheel.

Premiums are typically most expensive for teens, begin to decrease after age 25, and then rise again as drivers enter their 70s.

Here’s a breakdown of what you might pay for full coverage in Connecticut, based on age and gender.

Average car insurance cost in Connecticut for young drivers

If you’re a younger driver, expect to pay higher premiums on your car insurance.

Insurers consider young drivers risky because of the increased risk that comes with limited driving experience.

For instance, a 20-year-old male driver in Connecticut pays an average of $7,557 annually for car insurance, compared to $6,691 for a female driver of the same age.

By age 25, car insurance premiums typically decrease to $3,631 per year for male drivers and $3,496 for female drivers. While still slightly above average, it’s a substantial drop from what drivers pay in their early 20s.
