Buying Auto Insurance in Charlotte, North Carolina

Charlotte,North Carolina is one of the fastest growing cities along the east Coast. While the city proper is reaching a population of 665,000, the entire metropolitan area has over 2.2 million. This number translates to a density of over 2,500 people per square mile, and to a median commute to work of 22 minutes. Over 11 percent of Charlotte commuters spend over 45 minutes each way on their efforts to get to work. To alleviate some of the traffic congestion, plans are underway to develop light rail and commuter rail to augment its trolley, express shuttle, and bus services.

In spite of this growth, Charlotte residents still enjoy a low auto insurance rate for a city of its size. In 2005, the average premium for auto insurance was $731 per driver. However, as congestion increases, the number of accidents may also increase. As the accident rate goes up, insurance premiums may rise as well.

Protect Your Car and Save on Charlotte Auto Insurance

Congestion affects Charlotte driving expenses in other ways as well. Heavily traveled roads need repairs more frequently to keep them drivable. Poor roads translate into higher auto repair bills because of wear and tear on the auto. Because of recent expenditures on road construction, the annual loss to drivers for increases in vehicle operating costs due to bad roads is fairly low as well, averaging $182 per year. The combination of lower insurance costs and low vehicle operating costs makes Charlotte a fairly economical place to drive a car.
