U.S. Treasury FIO data for 288 ZIP codes in Nebraska (NE).
Homeowners in Nebraska pay an average of $2,473 per year for home insurance — 39% above the national average of $1,776. That ranks Nebraska as the 5th most expensive state out of 51 for homeowners insurance. Between 2018 and 2022, premiums rose by 11.5%; loss ratios above 100% indicate insurers paid more in claims than they collected — a leading indicator of future rate increases; nonrenewal rates climbed by 155.9% over the same period.
On five-year premium growth (2018–2022), Nebraska ranks 11th out of 51 states. Its nonrenewal rate (2.59%) ranks 2nd out of 50 — nonrenewal is an early warning indicator of insurer retreat, often tied to disaster risk.

Between 2018 and 2022, average premiums rose by 11.5% in Nebraska, placing the state 11th nationally on five-year premium growth. The state-level loss ratio averaged 105.5%, meaning insurers paid out more in claims than they collected in premiums, a leading indicator of future rate increases.

Within Nebraska, premium dispersion across ZIP codes is substantial: the most expensive ZIP (68461 in Walton) charges 172% more than the least expensive (69044 in Trenton), 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.
Nebraska statewide — FIO 2018-2022 average: 106% (Underwriting loss) — paid out more than collected — rate increases virtually guaranteed.
