I don't recall exactly how much my last increase was in 9-2023 from California State Automobile Association (aka CSAA, a former employer of mine at 150 Van Ness Ave. in the City, and now hq'd in Oakland while offering coverage in SW Ohio), but it was certainly noticeable without being anywhere near 51%. I too have no accidents, claims, et al. and have generally just been a happy camper paying annually for auto, home, and umbrella.

It's worth noting that rates in this region are much less than what I paid in San Francisco and Northern New England. Non-healthcare insurance is remarkably less expensive in this region compared to the other two.

Your comment gives me pause and reminds me that engaging a local agent will cost me nothing, inform me as to what is presently going on with rates among the various insurers, what is likely coming down the pike and why, and broaden my perspective regarding insurers that may be more suitable to meeting my actual needs.
