Colorado Homeowners Insurance

Reviewed byPlaininsure Editorial, Homeowners Insurance Transparency Editorial Team · June 5, 2026

U.S. Treasury FIO data for 418 ZIP codes in Colorado (CO).

Homeowners in Colorado pay an average of $2,591 per year for home insurance — 46% above the national average of $1,776. That ranks Colorado as the 3rd most expensive state out of 51 for homeowners insurance. Between 2018 and 2022, premiums rose by 21.4%; nonrenewal rates climbed by 25.5% over the same period.

On five-year premium growth (2018–2022), Colorado ranks 2nd out of 51 states. Its nonrenewal rate (1.27%) ranks 16th out of 50 — nonrenewal is an early warning indicator of insurer retreat, often tied to disaster risk.

Data Snapshot: Colorado Homeowners Insurance

Colorado homeowners paid an average of $2,591 per year for home insurance based on U.S. Treasury FIO data covering 418 ZIP codes across the state. That is 46% above the national average of $1,776 per year reported by the Federal Insurance Office. Colorado ranks 3rd most expensive out of 51 states and territories on annual premium, with ZIP-level observations ranging from $969 in 81501 to $11,843 in 81611.

Between 2018 and 2022, average premiums rose by 21.4% in Colorado, placing the state 2nd nationally on five-year premium growth. The state-level loss ratio averaged 50.9%, meaning insurers retained a healthy margin after claims, typical of stable markets. Nonrenewal rates — the share of policies insurers decline to extend at expiration — averaged 1.27%, a climb of 25.5% over the study period (ranking 16th out of 50 states).

Within Colorado, premium dispersion across ZIP codes is substantial: the most expensive ZIP (81611 in Aspen) charges 1122% more than the least expensive (81501 in Grand Junction), 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.
