Texans Still Pay Highest Insurance Rates for Homeowner Policies


Texas homeowners
still have the dubious distinction of paying the highest insurance
rates in the nation – despite measures designed to lower rates and much
worse weather losses in other states.

The Dallas Morning News reports today that the homeowner insurance situation is not improving in Texas. Please read the entire article. Here is a very brief excerpt:

A new study from
the National Association of Insurance Commissioners released Monday
showed that the average annual premium in Texas for the most common
homeowner policy was $1,409 a year, considerably more than the
nationwide average of $804. Florida was second at $1,386 – after a jump
of 28 percent in one year – and Louisiana was third at $1,257.
