As of January 2025, California requires all drivers to carry at least $30,000 per person for bodily injury, $60,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $15,000 for property damage liability. These limits doubled from the previous minimums and apply automatically when your policy renews. However, many experts recommend carrying higher limits to adequately protect your assets.
The average homeowner in San Bernardino County pays around $1,893 annually for $300,000 in dwelling coverage, though costs vary significantly based on your specific location and wildfire risk. Some areas have seen rates nearly double in recent years due to increased wildfire danger. Shopping with multiple insurers or working with a local independent agent can help you find the best rates.
The California FAIR Plan is a state-run insurance program for homeowners who can't get coverage from traditional insurers due to high wildfire risk. It covers fire damage but not other perils like theft or liability, so most people pair it with a wraparound policy. You only need the FAIR Plan if you've been denied coverage by standard insurance companies.
No, standard home insurance policies in California do not cover earthquake damage—you need a separate earthquake insurance policy. Given that Upland is located in Southern California near several fault lines, many homeowners choose to add this coverage. You can purchase earthquake insurance through the California Earthquake Authority or some private insurers.
You can reduce your premiums by taking wildfire mitigation steps like creating defensible space around your home, installing fire-resistant roofing, and upgrading windows. California law requires insurers to offer discounts for these risk reduction efforts. Bundling your home and auto policies, increasing your deductible, and maintaining a good credit score can also help lower costs.
Yes, working with a local independent agent who understands the Inland Empire market can be extremely valuable. They know which carriers are still writing policies in your area, can compare quotes from multiple insurers, and understand the specific challenges of insuring homes in wildfire-prone regions. Local agents can also help you navigate the FAIR Plan if necessary.
