Factors of insurance coverage rates:
Insurance rates are affected by various factors. The population and geographical features of the region is important. A higher populated region is more prone to accidents than a less populated region. The features of the land are important as areas with bad geographical features have lesser population and lesser vehicles. Bigger states have more complex structures for their legal proceedings and hence have higher insurance coverage to cover the required proceedings. High crime and theft rate in a region will increase the coverage rate for consumers. Consumers have to pay for the extra expenses in more complex areas thus increasing the insurance coverage rates in comparison to smaller regions.
