Travelers Companies Inc. was founded in 1864. It was the first company to offer accident insurance and now offers just about every personal and commercial insurance product imaginable. It also offers some of the lowest rates for liability and full-coverage auto insurance in Utica.
Pros
Mobile app has high average reviews in the App Store[2]
Advertises 12 discounts for drivers
Robust auto insurance options for customizing coverage
Cons
Below-average Better Business Bureau (BBB) customer rating[3]
Rideshare coverage only available in Colorado and Illinois
We had a very minor collision while waiting at a traffic light. The vehicle in front of us claimed we crept forward. Since there was very little damage (none to our car), we submitted the claim. To our surprise, we found that the other driver reported $3000 worth of damage to the rear of his car, with the only visible damage being a cracked piece of chrome trim at the base of the hatch. We called Travelers immediately, warning them that it was a scam. They seemed indifferent and said they would pay the claim. This could be one of the reasons why insurance rates are so expensive.

Pros
Excellent reputation

Cons
Below-average J.D. Power customer satisfaction rating[4]

Nationwide is a good insurance company, but I'm looking for a cheaper place with the same coverage. My premiums increase every 6 months for no apparent reason. I haven't had any accidents, tickets, DUIs, or anything else. I used to wonder why a policy went to 6 months instead of 12, but I finally figured it out. They can raise your coverage twice in a year, which seems very unfair. I'm retired.

Cheapest liability-only car insurance in Utica
Liability-only car insurance protects you after an accident you cause by covering the repair and medical bills of the other party. But if your car is damaged, or you’re injured in an accident you cause, liability insurance won’t pay for those expenses.
Because liability insurance only covers one-half of an accident, rates are often cheaper. Below, you can see the average monthly rates for liability-only coverage in Utica.
The below rates are estimated rates current as of: Wednesday, May 1 at 12:00 PM PDT.

Cheapest full-coverage car insurance in Utica
Full-coverage car insurance provides you the same protection as liability coverage, but it also covers injuries you sustain or damage to your vehicle in an accident you cause. This makes full coverage more expensive because it’s essentially covering all parties in an accident you cause. However, it could be a good option if you have a new car or a vehicle you’d struggle to replace if necessary.
Here’s a list of full-coverage quotes from insurers in Utica.

Car insurance requirements in New York
If you live in Utica you’ll need to have liability coverage, uninsured motorist coverage, and no-fault or personal injury protection insurance. Most states don’t require drivers to carry no-fault medical insurance, but New York does. If you were in a car accident, no matter whose fault it is, your car insurance would pay for the hospital bills and also replace your lost earnings and other expenses, such as medical care in the home.
But there are exceptions. If you were in a wreck due to drinking and driving, your no-fault insurance likely wouldn’t pay for your expenses.
The table below spells out the minimum car insurance requirements you’ll need to meet in Utica.
Coverage
Minimum Requirements
Bodily injury liability
$25,000 for bodily injury and $50,000 for death for a person involved in an accident
$50,000 for bodily injury and $100,000 for death for two or more people in an accident
Property damage liability
$10,000 per accident
Personal injury protection (PIP)
Reasonable and necessary accident-related medical and rehabilitation expenses (in accordance with established fee schedules)
80% of lost earnings from work, up to a maximum payment of $2,000 per month for up to three years from the date of the accident
Up to $25 a day, for up to a year from the date of the accident, to reimburse other reasonable and necessary expenses (such as household help and transportation expenses to/from medical treatment) resulting from the auto accident
A $2,000 death benefit (in addition to the $50,000 basic no-fault limit), payable to the estate of a person eligible for no-fault benefits who’s killed in a motor vehicle accident
But these requirements are just the minimum. They’ll prevent you from getting in trouble with the law, but there are plenty of situations that minimum coverage won’t protect you from, such as your car getting stolen or a tree landing on your parked car during a storm.
For those cases, you may want to also purchase:
Comprehensive coverage
This covers you if your vehicle is damaged due to something that has nothing to do with a car wreck. For instance, if your car is stolen or damaged by an animal crossing the road, comprehensive insurance would pay for the repairs or for your vehicle to be replaced.
Collision coverage
Collision coverage pays for repairs to your vehicle when it’s damaged by another vehicle or an object. Remember, liability insurance covers the damage to the other vehicle in an accident, and if you hit a telephone pole or a tree, you’d have to pay for your own damages if you didn’t have collision coverage.
Cheapest car insurance for drivers with an incident
Not everyone has a perfect driving record, and if you have a speeding ticket, at-fault accident, or DUI on yours, your insurance premiums will probably go up. As a general rule, insurance companies believe that one incident could mean there will be more incidents to follow and hedge their bets by raising premiums. The good news is that, in most cases, if you can go a few years without an incident, those rates should come back down.
In the sections that follow, you’ll see how different incidents affect your rates in Utica.

Cheapest car insurance for drivers with a speeding ticket
Utica takes speeding seriously. In recent years, the city has placed solar-powered smart speed-tracking devices in the city to get a sense of where the most speeding occurs.[5] If you get a speeding ticket in New York, your insurer may raise your rates. And if you have a ticket on your record already, you can expect to pay monthly rates similar to those listed below.

Cheapest car insurance for seniors
Auto insurers calculate premiums by looking at many different factors, and age is a particularly important one. If you’re 75 or older, your premiums will usually be higher than those of middle-aged people. This is because seniors are generally involved in more accidents and suffer more severe injuries when in a crash.

Cheapest car insurance for teens
Many young drivers are skilled, but insurers still charge this group higher premiums than older, more experienced motorists. Fortunately, teen drivers have ways to reduce high insurance premiums, like staying on their parents’ policy. Driving a car that your insurer considers a safe model may lower premiums as well, and your insurer may give a student discount for good grades.

How to get the cheapest car insurance in Utica
The rate you’ll pay for car insurance in Utica depends on many factors, some of which are out of your control. Comparing prices is an effective way to judge one insurer against another. But it isn’t the only thing you can do to lower your rates.
Here are some strategies you’ll want to keep in mind as you look for cheap car insurance:
Think about what you’re paying for. Liability-only coverage is less expensive than full coverage, but don’t entirely dismiss the latter option. For instance, if you’ve just purchased a new, expensive car or truck, liability insurance won’t cover repairs or replacement of the vehicle in many instances. Find the most affordable coverage that meets your needs instead of shopping solely based on price.
Consider your deductible. You may be tempted to choose a high deductible to lower your premiums, but keep in mind that you must pay your deductible before your insurer will supply coverage. If paying a high deductible would be tricky, you may want to pay higher monthly premiums and keep your deductible lower.
Look for deals. Asking your insurer or insurance agent if you can be steered to any discounts that will bring your rates down is always a smart idea. You can also inquire with your employer or other associations you’re affiliated with to see if they have any discount agreements with particular insurers.

Utica car insurance quotes by credit tier
Most states, including New York, allow insurers to consider credit scores when pricing insurance premiums. Auto insurers have concluded that a person’s credit score is a sign of how likely they are to file a claim. As such, motorists who have excellent or good credit scores pay far lower insurance premiums than drivers with poor credit scores.
The table below shows how Utica drivers’ credit scores can affect their insurance premiums.

Is car insurance more expensive in Utica?
It’s more expensive to pay for car insurance in Utica, New York, than in many other parts of the country. The U.S. national car insurance average is $103 for liability-only coverage, and full coverage costs $210.
Utica drivers pay $106 for liability-only coverage and $156 for full coverage, on average.
It’s always hard to pinpoint the exact reasons any community has high insurance rates. But the city is near the Adirondack Mountains (mountainous terrain is always rough on a car). The crime rate, which by many accounts is higher than the national average, also probably factors in.
Car insurance in Utica, New York, is one of the cheaper cities in the state to have car insurance, according to Insurify data.
Many other New York cities with far higher populations have average car insurance rates that are much higher than Utica’s. For instance, in Yonkers, you’ll pay $274 a month for full-coverage car insurance, a 76% jump over Utica. In Brooklyn, you’ll pay $314 a month — a 101% difference over Utica.
