Car insurance in Atlanta costs about $1,800 per year on average, according to several studies. Atlanta’s insurance rates are generally more expensive than both the national and state averages. This is due mainly to the city’s large population, busy airport and high number of commuters into the city center. Atlanta’s roads are crowded and more dangerous than most as a result. It ranks 88th for driving safety among major U.S. cities, according to a 2019 WalletHub study. And although crime has been decreasing in Atlanta overall, the city still has a problem with car thefts. In 2018, nearly 3,300 vehicles were reported stolen in the city.
Prices range widely from insurer to insurer in Atlanta, so it’s very important for residents to compare quotes. It’s good to do so before you buy your auto insurance and whenever your policy is about to renew. Although different companies are better for different types of Atlanta drivers, WalletHub’s research shows that the five auto insurers generally offer the cheapest rates in Georgia in 2019: 21st Century, American National, Twin City Fire Insurance Company, The Hartford Insurance, and Safe Auto.
