Between 2018 and 2022, average premiums rose by 14.1% in Illinois, placing the state 6th nationally on five-year premium growth. The state-level loss ratio averaged 50.3%, meaning insurers retained a healthy margin after claims, typical of stable markets.

Within Illinois, premium dispersion across ZIP codes is substantial: the most expensive ZIP (60611 in Chicago) charges 476% more than the least expensive (61367 in Sublette), 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.
Illinois statewide — FIO 2018-2022 average: 50% (Insurer-favorable) — low claim payout — insurer retains a healthy margin.
