Average annual minimum and full car insurance premiums in the U.S. 2024, by age
Louisiana had the most expensive annual car insurance premiums at U.S. dollars for full coverage. Alaska ranked in first place, having the highest annual cost for minimum car insurance coverage at *** U.S. dollars.
Why it varies state by state
The huge variance in premiums between states is due to the difference in state laws, the percentage of uninsured drivers in the state, the frequency of natural disasters, and claim rates. For instance, Michigan has a no-fault car insurance system, which means that claims are more common. This drives up the cost of insurance for all drivers because insurers need to pay out more money in claims.
Male drivers also pay more
There is also a difference between premiums among different age groups. In 2025, 25-year-old male drivers paid more per month than 25-year-old female drivers did. This is due to the higher incidence of accidents among young male drivers. This means that young drivers in states that already have higher premiums must pay a lot for car insurance.
