Arizona home insurance: key numbers
Homeowners insurance in Arizona averages $263 a month for the house we priced, with rates as of Sept. 30, 2026. The 5 major insurers we compared are State Farm, USAA (military families only), Farmers, Allstate and Liberty Mutual, and each one priced our sample home in all 221 Arizona ZIP codes in our data, which span 14 counties. For this house, Arizona is the 21st most expensive of the 50 states and D.C.
Our figures are for a $300,000 dwelling; insuring a larger or costlier house for more usually costs more.
For the same insurers and ZIP codes, the Arizona average rose 3.5% since Nov. 2025, from $3,053 a year ($254 a month) on Nov. 30, 2025, to $3,160 ($263) on Sept. 30, 2026, as Allstate’s rose 10.9%, Liberty Mutual’s rose 3.0% and Farmers’ didn’t change.

Why one insurer stands out: Liberty Mutual’s average for our sample home, $556 a month, is about 2.9 times the other 4 insurers’ average. It stays in our figures. Without it, the Arizona average would be $190 a month ($2,281 a year), 26.4% below the average of the 50 states and D.C.

Prices for the same home vary so much by insurer and ZIP code that the lowest one for our sample home may not be lowest for you, so compare a few quotes. The home table above lists every insurer’s average for the same home.
What changes your price: where the house sits, its value, age and roof, your deductibles, claims and credit, and whether you add a car. In Arizona, ZIP code averages for this house ran from $167 a month in Somerton to $492 in Phoenix, while insurers’ statewide averages ran from $125 to $556.

Compare all states: home insurance costs for the same house in all 50 states and D.C.
A standard homeowners policy pays to repair or rebuild after covered damage such as fire, lightning, wind and hail, theft and some water damage from burst pipes; flood and earthquake damage need separate coverage. All six coverages below are inside the $3,160-a-year Arizona average for our sample home.
Say a storm damages the roof and the repair costs $15,000. With the $1,000 deductible we priced, the policy would pay up to $14,000. With a 2% wind and hail deductible on the same $300,000 house, you’d pay the first $6,000 instead, and the policy up to $9,000.
For a house with $300,000 of rebuilding coverage and a $1,000 deductible, homeowners insurance in Arizona averages $263 a month ($3,160 a year) across the 5 insurers we compared in 221 ZIP codes (rates as of Sept. 30, 2026). That’s 1.9% above the $258-a-month average of the 50 states and D.C. for the same house. Insurers’ averages for that same house ran from $125 to $556 a month. Without Liberty Mutual, which priced far above the rest, the average would be $190 a month.
$200 a month is 24.0% below our sample home’s $263-a-month Arizona average; Arizona is the 21st most expensive of the 50 states and D.C. for this house. 2 of the 5 insurers we compared averaged under $200 for the same house: State Farm ($125) and USAA (military families only) ($145). If a quote for your home is near $200, compare its dwelling limit and deductibles with ours ($300,000 and $1,000) before you decide.
Use our one-house figures as a starting point when you compare homeowners insurance quotes for yours.
Your roof: Our sample house has a composition roof, and we priced it without a roof age. Insurers often charge more for older roofs, so ask how your roof’s age and material change your quote.
Your claims and credit: a recent claim, or weaker credit where an insurer uses it, can push an Arizona quote above the $263 a month our claim-free, good-credit owner averages.
Your deductibles: our house has one $1,000 deductible for covered losses other than a hurricane. If your policy has a separate percentage deductible for wind and hail, your premium and your out-of-pocket cost after a storm will both differ from ours.
A consumer guide from the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, the group of state insurance regulators, explains that many policies reduce a partial-loss payment if you insure for less than 80% of your home’s replacement cost, the cost to rebuild it. For our $300,000 sample house, that’s at least $240,000, so check your limit against a current rebuilding cost, not the home’s market value.
For our sample house, Arizona is the 21st most expensive of the 50 states and D.C. Our figures don’t separate causes; these official records show what Arizona homes face.
From Oct. 9 to 13, 2025, storms from tropical remnants brought 25 flash flood warnings to central Arizona and flooded about 15 homes in Queen Valley, east of Phoenix, the National Weather Service reported.
Wildfire is a concern too: Arizona’s Department of Forestry and Fire Management runs a wildfire risk portal where you can look up the risk for your neighborhood, and the state insurance department notes that homes in wildfire-prone areas may be nonrenewed.
Your deductible is the amount you pay out of pocket on each claim before your insurer pays. The house we priced has a $1,000 deductible for covered losses other than a hurricane, including wind and hail. Our sample home request also includes a 2% hurricane deductible, a setting we use in every state; real Arizona policies may use a separate wind and hail deductible, so ask for yours.
Your wind and hail deductible in dollars (illustration only)
| Dwelling coverage | 1% | 2% | 5% |
|---|---|---|---|
| $200,000 | $2,000 | $4,000 | $10,000 |
| $300,000 (our sample home) | $3,000 | $6,000 | $15,000 |
| $400,000 | $4,000 | $8,000 | $20,000 |
The table shows deductibles, not premiums. At 2%, the deductible on our sample home’s $300,000 dwelling is $6,000, more than the $3,160 a year that house averages in Arizona.
A higher deductible usually lowers your premium, so weigh the lower price against the bigger bill you’d face after a storm.
For our sample home, Arizona insurers’ statewide averages ran from $1,496 to $6,676 a year. These are the levers you control; how much each one moves a quote depends on the insurer and the house, and none of them comes with a promised price.
Compare at least three insurers: even one insurer’s price moves a lot by address: Liberty Mutual’s for our sample home ran from $2,654 to $17,186 a year depending on the Arizona ZIP code.
Price two deductibles: ask each insurer for the premium at your current deductible and one step higher, and keep any percentage wind and hail deductible in dollars in mind (2% of $300,000 is $6,000, about 23 months of Arizona’s $263-a-month average premium).
Ask about a tougher roof and safety devices: impact-resistant roofing, smoke detectors, burglar alarms and dead-bolt locks are common discounts to ask about.
Bundle with care: some insurers take roughly 5% to 15% off when you buy home and car insurance together, the Insurance Information Institute says; compare both ways before you decide.
Keep the coverage you need: insuring at least 80% of the rebuilding cost protects you on partial losses, so a lower price that comes from a lower limit can cost you after a large claim.
Guard a clean record: our sample owner has no claims in 10 years, and the $263-a-month Arizona average assumes that clean record; a recent claim can raise a quote.
Read the notice and your policy’s own cancellation and nonrenewal terms, then start shopping right away. If a notice doesn’t make sense to you, or you need help with a claim, call the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions at 602-364-2499.
Arizona doesn’t have a FAIR Plan, so if insurers turn you down, ask a licensed agent about other insurers that write homes in your area.

Liberty Mutual’s renters average is about 2.4 times the other insurers’ average; without it, Arizona’s renters average would be $20 a month ($244 a year).
Arizona’s renters average is the 7th most expensive of the 50 states and D.C., 29.7% above their average of $21 a month ($256 a year). Our sample renter’s policy costs about 11% of what our sample home costs to insure in Arizona.
For the same insurers and ZIP codes, the Arizona renters average rose 2.9% since Nov. 2025, from $27 to $28 a month, as Farmers’ rose 10.1%, Liberty Mutual’s didn’t change and State Farm’s didn’t change.
By ZIP code, the Arizona renters average for our sample renter ran from $22 a month in Gold Canyon (85118) to $34 in Phoenix (85033).
Our sample renter lives in an apartment built in 2005 and insures $40,000 of belongings with $300,000 liability and a $1,000 deductible. The renter is 40, single, with good credit and no claims. Rates as of Sept. 30, 2026, from 884 sample prices by 4 insurers across 221 Arizona ZIP codes.
Your landlord’s insurance is for the building; a renters policy is for your belongings and your liability. The policy we priced pays up to $40,000 for belongings after a covered fire, storm or burglary and $300,000 if you’re responsible for someone’s injury or property damage. In Arizona, that package averages $28 a month; flood and earthquake damage need separate coverage.

We don’t name a lowest condo insurer in Arizona (the methodology explains when we do); the condo table above lists every insurer’s average for the same condo, from $31 to $97 a month.
Arizona’s condo average is the 4th most expensive of the 50 states and D.C., 65.0% above their average of $40 a month ($481 a year). Our sample condo’s policy costs about 25% of what our sample home costs to insure in Arizona.

The association’s master policy covers the building, and your condo policy covers what the declaration and master policy leave to you. In our sample policy, $60,000 covers the inside of the unit and $60,000 your belongings, and that package averages $66 a month in Arizona.
Many Arizona homeowners insure a car too. Some insurers take roughly 5% to 15% off when you buy home and car insurance from them together (Insurance Information Institute), but the same insurer has to write both policies, and buying both from one insurer isn’t always the lower-priced choice, so compare both ways.

For the house we priced, Arizona averages $3,160 a year ($263 a month) across the 5 insurers we compared and 221 ZIP codes, with rates as of Sept. 30, 2026. By ZIP code, the average runs from $167 a month in Somerton to $492 in Phoenix, so your address matters.
Of the Arizona cities in our table with at least 5 ZIP codes, Surprise had the lowest average for our sample home, $182 a month, and Phoenix the highest, $444.
Our sample home is insured for $300,000 of dwelling coverage, and it averages $263 a month ($3,160 a year) in Arizona across 221 ZIP codes. That’s about $10.53 a year per $1,000 of dwelling coverage, though premiums don’t rise in step with the limit, so quote your own rebuilding cost.
Enter your ZIP code in any quote box on this page to compare free homeowners insurance quotes for your Arizona address. Get at least three: for our sample home, the 4 insurers anyone can buy from that we compared averaged $125 to $556 a month in Arizona.
We priced a $300,000 dwelling, not $400,000. For that house, Arizona averages $263 a month. A $400,000 house usually costs more to insure, so get quotes for your own rebuild cost, and remember the 80% rule.
Generally, yes, minus your deductible: a standard homeowners policy covers wind and hail damage. Some insurers use a separate percentage deductible for wind and hail, so work out what yours means in dollars; on our $300,000 sample house, 2% is $6,000, or $2,840 more than a year of the Arizona average premium for that house.
No. A standard Arizona home or renters policy doesn’t cover flooding. You can buy it through federal flood insurance (NFIP) or a private insurer, and a new NFIP policy usually takes 30 days to start, so don’t wait for a storm warning.
For the house we priced, the Arizona average rose 3.5% for the same insurers and ZIP codes between Nov. 30, 2025 and Sept. 30, 2026, to $263 a month. Your own renewal depends on your insurer, your home and your claims.

The Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions licenses insurers, oversees their rates and forms, and helps consumers with complaints about claims and nonrenewals. Its consumer line is 602-364-2499.
We priced the same house with 5 major insurers, and the same apartment and condo with 4 and 5, in each of the 221 Arizona ZIP codes in our data, using licensed insurance rate data from Quadrant Information Services, with rates as of Sept. 30, 2026. Each Arizona figure is the average of the ZIP-code averages, and monthly figures are yearly figures divided by 12. These are sample prices for one example home, renter and condo, not quotes or offers.
The homes we priced
How the averages work: for each insurer and ZIP code we used its lowest eligible price, averaged the insurers in each ZIP code, then averaged the ZIP codes, so every ZIP code counts the same. Percentages are worked out before rounding, so they can differ slightly from the rounded dollars shown. The price change compares the same insurers in the same ZIP codes on Nov. 30, 2025, and Sept. 30, 2026.
Which insurers we name: we don’t name a lowest-priced insurer when its lead over the next one is more than 30%, or when it was priced in fewer than 90% of a place’s ZIP codes, and we show the average without any insurer priced at more than twice the others. Each section says which insurer, if any, passed these tests for that line. We also never name an insurer that sells only to members, such as USAA (military families only) or an AAA insurer, and when the two lowest are within 5% of each other we call it a near tie.
Sample: Home: 1,105 sample prices from 5 insurers across 221 ZIP codes in 14 counties. Renters: 884 from 4 insurers. Condo: 1,105 from 5 insurers. Arizona here means the 221 Arizona ZIP codes in our rate data; cities group them by main post-office city.
Insurer notes: we review every note an insurer attaches to a price before publishing.
Comparisons: neighboring-state figures use the same method and rates; the 50-states-and-D.C. figure averages each state’s average and D.C.’s.
