Arkansas Homeowners Insurance

Reviewed byPlaininsure Editorial, Homeowners Insurance Transparency Editorial Team · June 4, 2026

U.S. Treasury FIO data for 373 ZIP codes in Arkansas (AR).

Homeowners in Arkansas pay an average of $1,736 per year for home insurance — 2% below the national average of $1,776. That ranks Arkansas as the 26th most expensive state out of 51 for homeowners insurance. Between 2018 and 2022, premiums rose by 3.4%; loss ratios near 100% suggest insurers are operating on thin margins in this state.

On five-year premium growth (2018–2022), Arkansas ranks 33rd out of 51 states. Its nonrenewal rate (0.89%) ranks 31st out of 50 — nonrenewal is an early warning indicator of insurer retreat, often tied to disaster risk.

Data Snapshot: Arkansas Homeowners Insurance

Arkansas homeowners paid an average of $1,736 per year for home insurance based on U.S. Treasury FIO data covering 373 ZIP codes across the state. That is 2% below the national average of $1,776 per year reported by the Federal Insurance Office. Arkansas ranks 26th most expensive out of 51 states and territories on annual premium, with ZIP-level observations ranging from $1,338 in 72471 to $3,052 in 72223.

Between 2018 and 2022, average premiums rose by 3.4% in Arkansas, placing the state 33rd nationally on five-year premium growth. The state-level loss ratio averaged 96.7%, meaning insurers are operating on thin margins, which can precede rate filings. Nonrenewal rates — the share of policies insurers decline to extend at expiration — averaged 0.89%, a decline of 9.7% over the study period (ranking 31st out of 50 states).

Within Arkansas, premium dispersion across ZIP codes is substantial: the most expensive ZIP (72223 in Little Rock) charges 128% more than the least expensive (72471 in Swifton), reflecting local differences in catastrophe exposure, construction costs, and claims history. The FIO dataset aggregates voluntary reporting from the 40 largest homeowners insurers covering roughly 80% of the U.S. market, so ZIP-level figures represent market averages rather than individual quotes; actual premiums vary with dwelling value, deductible, coverage limits, and insurer-specific underwriting. This page is for educational research only and is not insurance advice — homeowners should obtain quotes from multiple licensed carriers or an independent agent before purchasing or renewing coverage.
