Complete guide to auto, home, and insurance coverage in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Learn state requirements, local rates, and find trusted Montgomery County agents.
Home InsuranceGaithersburg home insurance averages $1,347/year. Learn about coverage options, flood risks in Montgomery County, and how to save on your premium.
Car InsuranceGaithersburg drivers pay ~$140/month for auto insurance. Learn Maryland's 30/60/15 requirements, at-fault rules, and how I-270 affects your rates.
Maryland requires 30/60/15 liability coverage ($30,000 per person, $60,000 per accident for injuries, $15,000 for property damage), matching uninsured motorist coverage at the same limits, and $2,500 in Personal Injury Protection (PIP). You can waive PIP in writing, but it pays your medical bills after an accident regardless of fault, making it valuable protection for most drivers.
Gaithersburg homeowners pay around $1,347 to $1,412 annually for home insurance, significantly below Maryland's state average of $1,630. However, the city experienced premium increases exceeding 25% recently due to rising construction costs and more severe weather. Your actual rate depends on your home's age, construction type, location, and your personal factors like credit score and claims history.
Standard home insurance doesn't cover flood damage. If you're in a FEMA-designated flood zone, your mortgage lender will require it. Even outside high-risk zones, consider flood insurance—most flood damage occurs in moderate-to-low risk areas, especially near Muddy Branch and Northwest Branch in Montgomery County. Policies through the National Flood Insurance Program typically cost $400 to $700 annually.
Both have advantages. Local agents in Gaithersburg understand Montgomery County-specific risks, can bundle policies for discounts, and advocate for you during claims. They also often serve clients in multiple languages. Online insurers may offer lower rates and 24/7 digital access. Get quotes from both—at least one local agent and one online option—then compare coverage, not just price.
Replacement cost coverage pays to rebuild your home or replace belongings at today's prices, without deducting for depreciation. Actual cash value pays what your property was worth after years of wear and tear—significantly less. Always choose replacement cost coverage for both your dwelling and personal property, even though premiums are higher. The difference becomes critical when you file a claim.
If your household income exceeds $100,000 or you have significant assets to protect, umbrella insurance is worth considering. It provides liability coverage above your auto and home policies, typically starting at $1 million for $150 to $300 annually. With Gaithersburg's median household income at $107,496, many residents benefit from this extra protection against lawsuits that exceed their underlying policy limits.
