Drivers in Laredo, Texas, pay a monthly average of $157 for car insurance. Laredo’s rate is lower than the Texas average but still higher than the national average. Texas is prone to severe weather events, which is among the factors that affects the South Texas city's higher-than-average rates.[1]

Full coverage is a good alternative to liability-only insurance for drivers seeking more financial protection. And if you lease or finance your car, your lender will likely require this added protection.
A full-coverage policy includes liability coverage in addition to collision and comprehensive coverage. Texas auto insurers are required to automatically include uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) and personal injury protection (PIP) in all renewal policies. The policyholder can only decline the coverage via signing a waiver.
The monthly average rate for full-coverage insurance in Laredo is $200.
Here are companies that offer the most affordable full-coverage rates in Laredo, according to Compare.com data.
Company | Average Monthly Premium |
|---|---|
| State Farm | $106 |

One insurance company won’t be the best choice for every driver in Laredo. The best insurer for you will depend on your unique situation, including your address, age, driving record, credit history, and other factors.
That’s why we’ve done the research to get you started. Below are our top picks for car insurance companies in Laredo. Each stands out for a combination of factors, including affordable rates, customer satisfaction, and coverage flexibility.

| Full Coverage Full-coverage car insurance generally includes liability, collision, and comprehensive coverage, and may include other optional coverages such as uninsured motorist coverage. Collision covers a policyholder’s repair or replacement costs in case of an accident. Comprehensive covers damages caused by non-accident events.

Customers appreciate the helpful agents and prompt claim handling, but many are unhappy with the constant rate increases, even for safe drivers. Some also reported poor customer service.
State Farm offers some of the cheapest average rates we found, making it a great option for Laredo drivers who want to save on their car insurance. In addition to affordable rates, it also has high customer satisfaction and offers ample discounts that could lower your costs even further.
But State Farm’s online quote process is a bit complicated, though it’s worth getting a quote to compare costs.

If you’re a low-mileage Laredo driver, Mile Auto could be worth a look. This nontraditional insurer lets you pay per mile driven, which could significantly reduce your car insurance costs. And unlike many other pay-per-mile options, you won’t need to add a tracking device to your car with this insurer.
Overall, Mile Auto could be a good option if you don’t drive often — just be wary of its mixed customer reviews.

Texas requires all drivers to meet state minimums for car insurance. You’ll need to buy the following coverages:
Bodily injury liability insurance: $30,000 per person and $60,000
Property damage liability insurance: $25,000 per accident[7]
Failing to meet the state’s requirements can leave you facing fines, vehicle impoundment, and other penalties. Insurers must offer you personal injury protection and uninsured motorist coverage, but you can decline in writing if you don’t want it.
Minimum coverage is often affordable, but it’s typically not enough protection, no matter where you live. A liability-only policy won’t cover damages if you get into a car crash with extensive damage and serious injuries. Insurance professionals typically recommend drivers carry 100/300/100 coverage for a greater level of financial protection from at-fault accidents.
Consider buying comprehensive and collision coverage. The Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) recommends it, and most lenders require it if you have a car loan or lease.
If you still have questions about Laredo car insurance, we’ve got you covered. Here are answers to the most common questions drivers ask.
Car insurance costs an average of $157 per month in Laredo, according to Compare.com data. Full-coverage policies cost around $200 per month, while drivers pay about $113 per month for liability insurance.
The cheapest insurer in Laredo is State Farm, with an average monthly rate of $55, according to Compare.com data.
Not really. Laredo drivers pay an average rate of $157, which isn’t too much higher than the national average of $142, according to our research. Keep in mind that your actual car insurance rate will depend on several factors, including your address, driving record, age, credit, and more.
Car insurance is relatively expensive in Texas likely because many people live in densely populated areas like Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio.[8] Severe weather events are also relatively common in Texas, which could account for the higher car insurance rates.
