Tracking Where Insurance Prices are Increasing the Most
Manage episode 498839531 series 2813754
Home insurance premiums are rising much faster than homeowner incomes—and climate risk is driving the spike. In today’s episode, we dig into new Zillow data showing premiums have jumped 38% nationally since 2019, compared to just a 22% rise in homeowner income. The fastest increases are hitting places like Miami, Sacramento, and Jacksonville, where wind and wildfire risks are high. We explore how these rising costs are squeezing budgets, threatening affordability for first-time buyers, and reshaping housing access in vulnerable markets.
