Colorado auto rates have risen faster than the national average for several years. The main reasons are hail, which makes Colorado one of the most expensive states for comprehensive claims; high vehicle theft rates in the Denver metro area; repair costs for vehicles packed with sensors and cameras; rising medical and legal costs; and a large share of uninsured drivers.
Insurers file their own rates with the Colorado Division of Insurance, so prices for the same driver can vary a lot from one carrier to the next. To manage your premium, keep a clean record, bundle home and auto, consider a higher comprehensive deductible, park in a garage during hail season, and compare carriers at renewal.
