Car Insurance Savings Tip5

If you can help it, live in a rural area. If you can, it will save you a lot in car insurance. Here's why...

1) Accidents are less frequent in such areas (You don't need to be a genius to know that).

2) Car theft and vandalism are also less likely in such areas. Thieves like operating in places where their identities won’t be easily uncovered. That’s not the case in rural areas. Everyone knows everyone else.

For these two reasons among others, you'll get a lower premium if you choose to live in a rural area. But what if you insist or have to live in a city? You can still benefit from your place of residence by taking the following into consideration...

There are areas mapped out as red light districts or high crime zones. If you avoid such areas, you'll be saving yourself a lot of money. And, please note that in mapping out areas, there just has to be a separating line. Here's what I mean...


The next street to yours might be mapped into a different zone from yours. If this is the case, you may have a huge difference between your premium and someone else with a similar profile living on the next street.

Lastly, make sure you understand the fundamentals of making considerable savings in car insurance. That way, you'll know how to take advantage of discounts available out there.
