Denver is the largest city in Colorado based on population, so it’s no surprise that Denver drivers pay higher rates than drivers in other parts of the state. Drivers in the Mile-High City pay an average of $162 per month for auto insurance, according to Compare.com data.

How Much Car Insurance Do You Need In Denver?

Aerial view of a city skyline at sunset, with colorful clouds, modern buildings, and a park in the foreground.

Like nearly every other state, Colorado requires drivers to have car insurance. Your policy must meet the following coverage minimums:[4]

Should you buy full-coverage insurance in Denver?

A full-coverage policy includes higher liability insurance limits, collision coverage, and comprehensive insurance. If you have an older or high-mileage vehicle, full coverage may not be essential.

But a full-coverage policy provides additional protection, especially if:

  • You finance or lease your car

  • You need higher liability limits to protect your assets

  • It would cost too much to repair or replace your car out of pocket

  • Besides the state-required liability coverage, Denver drivers may benefit from adding one or more of the following types of insurance to their policy:

    • Collision coverage pays to repair or replace your vehicle.

    • Comprehensive insurance covers non-collision events, such as hail or wind damage, theft, vandalism, or vehicle break-ins.

    • Uninsured/underinsured motorist pays for medical expenses and property damage if an uninsured or underinsured driver hits you.

    • Gap insurance covers the difference between what you owe on a car loan or lease and the car’s value if it’s stolen or totaled in an accident.

Cheapest after a DUI: State Farm

Colorado has a higher-than-usual rate of fatalities related to driving under the influence (DUI), according to the Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility.[5] As a result, the state has ramped up its police efforts to address this problem. In 2025, police completed more than 16,000 DUI arrests.[6]

Insurers view you as a much higher risk after a DUI conviction, which means you’ll pay significantly higher insurance rates. On average, Denver drivers with a DUI on their record pay $226 per month.

You may be able to limit rate hikes by switching to an insurer that specializes in high-risk drivers. Let’s look at the cheapest insurers for drivers with DUIs in Denver, according to Compare.com data.

Cheapest for teens: State Farm

Denver is a “young” city, with 21% of its population between the ages of 15 and 29, according to the Metro Denver Economic Development Corporation.[7]

In Denver, teen drivers pay an average of $298 per month for auto coverage.

Even with a teen on your policy, you may not have to settle for high insurance rates. Take a look at the chart to see the cheapest insurers for Denver teens, according to Compare.com data.
