If you’re in Florida, your monthly cost for full coverage car insurance is $321, which adds up to $3,852 per year. For minimum coverage, expect to pay an average of $101 monthly, or $1,208 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 car insurance cost in Florida

Drivers in Florida generally pay an average of $321 per month or $3,852 per year for full coverage car insurance. However, if you go with the state’s minimum coverage, your monthly premium could be as low as $101 or $1,208 per year. Just keep in mind that opting for minimum coverage means significantly less protection if you’re in an accident.

Your exact car insurance costs may vary, as insurers consider multiple factors including your age, driving experience, credit score, where you live and what kind of car you drive.

Cheapest car insurance companies in Florida

Travelers has the cheapest rates, at an average annual cost of $2,520 or $210 a month for a full coverage policy with limits of 100/300/100 and $500 collision and comprehensive deductibles.

UAIC also stands out for its affordable premiums, with an average cost of $218 per month or $2,612 annually.

While these insurance companies have some of the lowest average rates in Florida, your actual premium may vary. It’s always a good idea to compare quotes to find the best deal on auto insurance.

Average cost of car insurance by coverage levels in Florida

The cost of your car insurance also depends on the coverage levels you choose.

If you opt for just the minimum coverage required by your state, you’ll pay $101 per month, or $1,208 per year. It’s a low-cost option, but keep in mind that it won’t pay for any repairs to your own car if you’re in an accident.

For solid protection, full coverage might be the right choice. It includes liability coverage along with collision and comprehensive insurance. Collision coverage covers damage to your vehicle from accidents, irrespective of fault. Comprehensive coverage protects against non-collision events like theft, vandalism or weather events.

In Florida, the average cost for full coverage is $321 per month, or $3,852 per year

While it’s more than what you’d pay for minimum coverage, the added protection can be worth it, especially if your car is of significant value.

Coverage limitsAverage annual cost
State minimum liability-only$1,208
Liability only$2,220
Full coverage$3,852
Non-owner state minimum liability$925

Average car insurance cost in Florida by city

Where you live in Florida can have a big impact on your car insurance rates.

On the other hand, drivers in cities like Cape Coral and Tallahassee tend to pay much lower insurance premiums, between $3,268 and $3,308 per year.

These cities usually have fewer accidents, lower crime rates and less congestion, which helps keep insurance costs down.

Average car insurance cost in Florida by age

Insurers consider age a key risk factor when determining car insurance rates. Our data shows that young drivers typically pay higher premiums due to their limited experience behind the wheel.

Generally, rates are highest for teens, begin to drop after age 25 and rise again once drivers reach their early 70s.

Let’s take a closer look at how much you might pay in Florida for a full coverage policy based on your age and gender.

Average car insurance cost in Florida for young drivers

If you’re a young driver, you can expect to pay above average premiums. Insurers see young drivers as high-risk, which means higher premiums until you gain more experience behind the wheel.

For instance, 20-year-old male drivers in Florida pay an average of $8,245 per year for car insurance, while females of the same age pay $7,355.

But by the time you turn 25, insurance premiums drop to $4,491 a year on average for male drivers and $4,450 for female drivers.

Average car insurance cost in Florida for senior drivers

If you’re a senior driver, your car insurance costs go up as you get older. At age 65, men pay about $3,476 per year, while women pay $3,536. But by age 70, average premiums rise to $3,779 for men and $3,724 annually for women. At 75, rates increase even further – $4,257 for male drivers and $4,105 for female drivers.

Insurers charge more because older drivers are seen as a higher risk due to slower reaction times and changes in vision. But you can still keep costs down by maintaining a clean driving record and taking advantage of senior discounts.

Age of driverAverage annual cost for Male driversAverage annual cost for Female drivers
