Finding affordable homeowner’s insurance in Florida is no easy task: With an average annual premium of $2,084 (nearly double the the national average of $1,034), Florida has the highest home insurance rates of any state in the United States. This shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise considering Florida’s coastal geography and the increased likelihood of property damage due to hurricanes and floods.

Despite all this, there are still factors that can reduce what you’ll pay for home insurance in Florida — the physical location of the property, the age and condition of the home, and, of course, the insurance provider you choose will all have a significant impact on your monthly payment.
