How Bankrate chose the best car insurance companies in Arizona

To find the best auto insurance in Arizona, Bankrate’s insurance experts developed a proprietary Bankrate Score to help grade companies on factors like customer service rankings, financial strength ratings, policy options and discounts, and more. We also reviewed average premium data from Quadrant Information Services to see which companies offered great coverage at a reasonable price.

Each company was scored based on these categories, with a higher score in each category resulting in a higher overall Bankrate Score, with a maximum score of 5 out of 5.

How much is car insurance in Arizona?

The average cost of car insurance in Arizona is $2,737 per year for full coverage and $864 per year for minimum coverage. Arizona drivers pay more than the national average cost of car insurance for full coverage, which is $2,388 per year. The cost of minimum coverage insurance in Arizona is also more expensive than the national average of $664 per year. Arizona’s average car insurance rates are in between the average rates in the neighboring states of California and Utah. California’s average full coverage rates are higher at $2,810 per year for full coverage and lower for minimum coverage at $668 per year. To compare, Utah’s average rates are $2,118 per year for full coverage and $818 per year for minimum coverage.

Location is a major factor impacting state rates, as each state, and even each city within the state, could have a different crime rate, cost of living, average repair costs and more. For instance, California's average rates could be higher than Arizona's due to a higher population density, leading to a higher prevalence of car accidents. Utah could be cheaper for the same reason — a lower population density, leading to a reduced risk of car accidents. Additionally, Los Angeles is the second-largest city in the country, which may skew California’s average rates as a whole.
