Fairfield home insurance guide covering earthquake risk, wildfire exposure, military housing at Travis AFB, and navigating California's tough insurance market.
California now requires minimum liability coverage of $30,000 per person for bodily injury, $60,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $15,000 for property damage. These new limits, which doubled from previous requirements, take effect when your policy renews, not automatically on January 1, 2025. While these are legal minimums, most experts recommend higher limits to adequately protect your assets.
Solano County home insurance rates are climbing due to California's overall insurance market crisis, driven by increasing wildfire risks, recent catastrophic claims like the Los Angeles wildfires, and insurers reassessing their exposure. Premiums in Solano County could increase up to 30% in 2025, and some insurers are limiting new policies or non-renewing existing customers in higher-risk areas.
Earthquake insurance is not required by law, but it's worth serious consideration in Fairfield due to the area's proximity to fault lines. Standard homeowners policies do not cover earthquake damage, leaving you financially exposed if a major quake damages your home. The cost varies based on your home's age, construction type, and location, but you should get a quote to make an informed decision.
Even if you're not in a FEMA high-risk flood zone, flood insurance is worth considering in Fairfield given the proximity to Suisun Bay and local waterways. Standard homeowners policies don't cover flood damage, and over 20% of flood insurance claims come from moderate-to-low risk areas. NFIP policies are relatively affordable outside high-risk zones, often just a few hundred dollars annually.
Renters insurance covers your personal belongings if they're stolen or destroyed by covered perils like fire or theft, and provides liability coverage if someone is injured in your rental or you accidentally cause damage to others' property. It also typically covers additional living expenses if your rental becomes uninhabitable due to a covered loss. At $15-30 per month, it's one of the most affordable insurance options available.
Bundle your auto and home or renters insurance with the same carrier for multi-policy discounts of 15-25%. Raise your deductibles to lower premiums, ask about all available discounts (good student, defensive driving, claims-free), and shop around annually since rates change frequently. Consider dropping comprehensive and collision coverage on older vehicles, and maintain good credit as it significantly impacts your rates in California.
