About these numbers

Rows marked filed come from a per-carrier, per-city import. Rows marked state-average estimate are built by spreading a statewide average across insurers until real per-city data is imported. Credit tier and driving record are always modeled adjustments, never filed. Your real premium depends on your record, exact address and chosen limits.
