The Zebra’s Dynamic Insurance Rating Tool data methodology
The Zebra’s Dynamic Insurance Rating Tool for home and auto insurance rates utilizes the latest ZIP code-level rate filings from across the U.S., sourced from Quadrant Information Services and S&P Global. These filings, typically updated annually or biennially by insurers, are verified through Quadrant’s QA process and then integrated into The Zebra’s estimator.
The displayed rates are based on a dynamic home and auto profile designed to reflect the content of the page. This profile is tailored to match specific factors such as age, location, and coverage level, which are adjusted based on the page content to show how these variables can impact premiums.

Average car insurance in Las Vegas by rating factor
Insurance operates by assessing a series of rating factors for each applicant. Rating factors are details about you that determine what level of risk you pose to the insurance company and what a fair rate looks like. Common rating factors include age, location, credit score, and driving history.
As some of these factors change over time, so could the best insurance company for you. Getting a quote from time to time will tell you if you're still getting the best rates.Â
Â
Q: I didn't have an accident — Why is my insurance going up?
A: End-of-year earnings (revenue of premiums versus the cost of paying insureds’ claims) is also a major rating factor for how much you will pay for car insurance in Las Vegas. Even if you’ve had no claims with your insurance company, you could still be paying more with a particular insurance company because the price of doing business has increased in Las Vegas.
Auto insurance premiums by age in Las Vegas
One of the top rating factors insurance companies use to rate policies is a driver's age. In the insurance world, age tends to correlate with years of experience driving. Less experience on the road means a higher potential for accidents and claims. That said, it's no surprise that teen drivers are charged the highest premiums: in Las Vegas, the difference in rates paid by teenage drivers and drivers in their 20s is $2,059, the largest such difference between any two age groups for a new car insurance policy.
While this number may seem shocking, it's important to note that insurance companies are in the risk management business. By charging higher rates for teen drivers, they are able to offset the increased cost of paying claims. In other words, it's not personal; it's just business.

Auto insurance premiums for minimum coverage in Las Vegas
The amount of coverage you choose for your car insurance will have a big impact on your rates. The more protection you select, the more you will pay. According to our data, 42% of drivers in Las Vegas carry basic coverage. While in many cases this is all that is legally required, only selecting this level of coverage can leave you at risk of being underinsured.
A common choice for a broader protection package is referred to as "full coverage." This includes collision coverage or comprehensive coverage, often required by lending associations for those who have a leased or financed vehicle. Both of these options come with a deductible; you can opt for a higher deductible for a lower monthly rate.Â
Popular add-ons like roadside assistance or uninsured motorist coverage can go the extra mile in protecting you and your vehicle. These coverages will increase your premiums, but the experts at The Zebra still recommend considering them.
Q: Can I lower my car insurance coverage?
A: Possibly — if your vehicle is paid off.
In an analysis of our data, 53% of drivers in Las Vegas have owned vehicles. If you are not leasing or financing your vehicle, you should consider if dropping comprehensive or collision coverage is right for you. We recommend getting the actual cash value of your vehicle via Kelley Blue Book or another reputable source. The general rule of thumb is if your vehicle is worth less than $4,000, you probably don't need collision coverage. Bear in mind, however, that dropping these coverages means that you will have to pay for any repairs out of your own pocket.

Data table summary: If you want minimum liability coverage in Las Vegas, Capital Insurance Group is the cheapest option at just $254 or $42 per month. GEICO is a close second, while Nationwide and State Farm are the pricest insurance companies for this level of coverage.
Most of our customers in Las Vegas opt for basic coverage, but this may not be the best option for everyone. While we understand state minimum coverage is a budget-friendly solution, it does leave you at risk for damages that exceed your liability limits. Nevada's 25/50/20 liability limits provide coverage for damage you cause up to $25,000 per person in bodily injury, $50,000 per accident in bodily injury and $20,000 for property damage. While this may be sufficient for most standard car accidents, it might not be for bodily injury claims or multi-vehicle accidents.

Las Vegas car insurance rates by credit score
Most states' car insurance companies still consider a driver's credit score when rating policies, including Nevada. Credit score has historically been a rating factor because of the correlation between credit score and the likelihood of claims. Data analysis suggests that drivers with a lower credit score are more likely to file claims, have coverage lapses and engage in risky driving behavior. Because of the association between poor credit and higher risk, those with bad credit pay more in premiums.Â
In fact, Las Vegas drivers with poor credit (300-579) pay 163% more than drivers with excellent credit (800-850). Our data tells us 35% of drivers in Las Vegas have a credit score of good (680-719). In 2025, Capital Insurance Group is the cheapest option for Las Vegas drivers with bad credit.

Why is car insurance in Las Vegas so expensive?
It's no surprise that a location nicknamed "sin city" has high car insurance rates. Las Vegas is an extremely popular tourist destination known for activities associated with alcohol intake. With a constant influx of people and notoriously poor public transportation[1], driving can prove challenging and the risk of accidents is high.Â
Location is a major factor in rating insurance policies, so even if you have a clean driving record, your premiums in Las Vegas can still be expensive. Below you'll find a rundown of why car insurance is so expensive in Las Vegas — regardless of your driving profile.
With a limited public transportation system and year-round tourist activity, you can find a high concentration of vehicles on the road at any given time. With this much traffic congestion, the potential for accidents is increased.Â
The booming nightlife scene ensures plenty of pedestrians and motorists are present at all hours of the day and night. In fact, Nevada is the 8th most dangerous state in America for pedestrians[2], and the numbers are not improving.Â
According to a study conducted by BuyAutoInsurance.com[3], Las Vegas is the number one worst city for drunk driving in the United States. This rank is further supported by the number of arrests made for DUIs per year in Vegas: over 5,800 in 2022[4]. The insurance penalty for a DUI in Las Vegas is severe; rates increase more than 50% after a drunk driving charge.Â
While Nevada is low on the list in the volume of uninsured drivers, Las Vegas has a significant number. According to our data, about 29% of drivers in Las Vegas are not currently insured. If you find yourself hit by an uninsured motorist in Las Vegas, you could be left footing the bill yourself.
Zebra Tip: Consider uninsured property damage coverage
In cities or ZIP codes with high rates of uninsured drivers, we recommend carrying uninsured motorist coverage (also called UMPD). This coverage will provide assistance to you if you or your vehicle are damaged by an underinsured or uninsured driver. This coverage typically has a lower deductible and is cheaper than collision. Plus, the rate increase after a UMPD claim can be hundreds of dollars cheaper than a collision claim.
Bundling insurance policies in Las Vegas
Car insurance prices are increasing nationally, and this is a daunting thought for drivers in Las Vegas where average rates are already high. However, there are still plenty of ways to save. One of the most common discounts offered by insurance companies is the multi-policy discount or "bundling" discount. Combining your auto and home or renters insurance with one insurance provider can qualify you for a discount. Some companies offer savings up to 10% off combined premiums. Learn more about bundling home and car insurance.
If you currently have separate policies for your home and car, it's definitely worth shopping around to see if you could save money by bundling them together. In many cases, you'll find that it's well worth the effort.

While some things may be out of your control, drivers can work to make their profiles more appealing to insurers. The best advice we offer is to shop around and compare auto insurance quotes with as many companies as possible to ensure you're getting the most affordable rate that doesn't compromise coverage and service — especially if any personal factors have changed (like moving, celebrating a birthday and improving your credit). Try as you might, some companies are just more expensive than others; don't be afraid to switch.
