Car insurance is mandatory for anyone who wants to drive in the US, and for the most part it’s affordable with the exception of Florida. Florida insurance rates are higher than even due to the increase in aggressive drivers (a name given by insurance companies to describe people susceptible to driving recklessly), especially in the southern areas of the state. The fact is that not only is insurance required to drive, but if you live in Florida is nearly suicidal to drive your car without proper coverage because of these dangerous, reckless drivers. Here are some of the companies that provide some of the cheapest car insurance in Florida, while also providing great service and coverage.

Geico – Good, Cheap Coverage
Without a doubt the cheapest car (as well as many other kinds of motor vehicles) insurer in Florida and much of the US is Geico. They offer easy online payments, and you really won’t be able to find coverage this cheap with anyone else. The only problem I’ve had with them in the past (and this comes solely from my personal experience) is that they’re pretty unforgiving when it comes to auto accidents. That is, even if it’s a little fender-bender you’ll find your rates increasing through the roof.

Now that’s Progressive
Progressive auto insurance comes in at a close second in terms of how cheap coverage is, but they make up for it in leaps and stride with much improved customer service and plans that are much more customizable than Geico. If you want to maintain a certain level of quality while also keeping the prices low Progressive is the insurer for you.

Like a Good Neighbor, State Farm is There
State Farm will provide you some of the best insurance you can find, and it’s very affordable for the most part, although not as cheap as the “discount” insurers such as Progressive and Geico. With State Farm you can find a plan that suits your specific needs, and they pride themselves in accident forgiveness, as well as safe-drive discounts. All in all, this is the option for people looking for high-qaulity service at a discount price.
