Coverage Type Breakdown – Wake County

Wake County’s 66.7% non-owner share reflects Raleigh’s rapidly growing population — new arrivals who haven’t yet purchased a vehicle, workers between cars, and drivers maintaining coverage for SR-22 requirements. The Research Triangle’s tech economy attracts a transient workforce that drives non-owner demand.

Raleigh, Cary & Apex: How Wake County Communities Differ

Wake County covers some of North Carolina’s most economically diverse communities — from Raleigh’s urban core to Cary’s affluent tech corridor to Apex’s fast-growing suburban neighborhoods. Our ZIP-level data captures these differences, though sample sizes are small and directional.

Raleigh (27609, 27610, 27613)
Raleigh ZIPs in our data range from $62/mo (27613, northwest Raleigh) to $201/mo (27610, east Raleigh). The east Raleigh ZIP reflects a higher-risk full coverage profile. The northwest ZIP averaged just $62/mo for a non-owner policy. This urban ZIP spread is typical of Raleigh’s income diversity across neighborhoods.
Cary (27519, 27513)
Cary ZIPs averaged $151–$167/mo in our data — among the highest in Wake County. Cary’s affluent tech-worker demographic drives a higher full coverage share for financed newer vehicles. Cary is home to a large concentration of tech professionals, many with financed SUVs and vehicles requiring comprehensive protection.
Apex & Morrisville
Apex (27502, 27539) averaged $52–$114/mo — one of the more affordable suburban communities in our Wake County data. Morrisville (27560) averaged $187/mo on a single full coverage policy. Both communities sit along the Research Triangle tech corridor and are growing rapidly.

27610Raleigh (east)1$201
The spread from $52/mo (Apex 27502) to $201/mo (east Raleigh 27610) reflects the coverage type difference as much as location risk — Apex’s low average comes from a non-owner policy while east Raleigh’s high average reflects a full coverage profile. Data continuously updated as new quotes come in.

Wake County Auto Insurance FAQs

What is the average cost of car insurance in Wake County?
From our Wake County data (April 2024 onward, updated daily): the average is about $90/month and the median is about $60/month — among the lowest medians in our NC dataset. Non-owner policies make up 66.7% of quotes averaging $69/mo, full coverage averages $157/mo, and liability-only averages $89/mo. The low median reflects the strong non-owner concentration.
Why is car insurance so affordable in Raleigh and Wake County?
Wake County’s overall affordability in our data is primarily driven by its 66.7% non-owner policy share averaging $69/mo. No policy in our Wake County sample exceeded $201/mo — an unusually tight ceiling compared to other large NC counties. The Research Triangle’s tech-worker demographic also tends to have cleaner driving records and newer vehicles with favorable risk profiles.
Can I get non-owner insurance in Raleigh or Cary?
Yes. Non-owner policies are 66.7% of our Wake County quotes averaging $69/mo. We write non-owner policies across all Wake County ZIP codes. Non-owner insurance covers you as a driver in vehicles you don’t own and satisfies SR-22 requirements for license reinstatement. See our North Carolina non-owners insurance guide.
Which company is cheapest in Wake County?
In our data, National General averaged $86/mo — slightly ahead of Dairyland ($91/mo) and Progressive ($92/mo). All three are within $6/mo of each other in this market, reflecting tight competition for the non-owner and liability segment in Raleigh and Cary.
Is car insurance more expensive in Cary than Raleigh?
In our data, yes. Cary ZIPs (27513, 27519) averaged $151–$167/mo while most Raleigh ZIPs averaged $62–$98/mo. Cary’s higher averages reflect full coverage on newer financed vehicles common in Cary’s tech-worker community, while Raleigh’s averages skew lower due to the non-owner policy concentration.
What are North Carolina’s minimum car insurance requirements?
NC requires 30/60/25 — $30,000 bodily injury per person, $60,000 per accident, and $25,000 property damage. NC also requires uninsured motorist coverage at matching limits (30/60). This applies to both standard and non-owner policies in Wake County.
