#1 (Laytonville, +105.7%) rose far faster than the national average premium change of +6.5% over the same 2018-2022 period. A single ZIP's swing can reflect a small policy base rather than a broad market shift.

#1 (Lake Wales, -53.3%) moved opposite the national trend - premiums rose +6.5% on average nationally over 2018-2022, so a ZIP-level decrease this large is the exception, not the rule.

Highest Loss Ratios

ZIP codes where insurers paid out the most in claims relative to premiums earned (2022). Limited to ZIP codes with at least 1,000 residents so a single large claim in a sparsely populated area can't dominate the list.

#1 (Roscoe, 1525.9%) is still a small-sample area relative to major metros; a handful of large claims can move a loss ratio sharply from one year to the next. For context, the median loss ratio among ZIP codes at or above the population floor is 43.4%.

Highest Nonrenewal Rates

ZIP codes where insurers declined to renew the most policies (2022). High nonrenewal rates may indicate insurer risk concerns. Limited to ZIP codes with at least 1,000 residents so a single-digit-population ZIP can't dominate the list.
