Car insurance providers typically decide your premium by assessing your level of risk. That said, people living in safe neighborhoods with low crime rates and minimal traffic typically have an easier time securing low car insurance rates.
Here are some of the best places to live in Baton Rouge,
Louisiana
for car insurance:
  • Bernard Terrace: While the houses here are pricey, the neighborhood is safe and quiet. The population is relatively small with only about 3,000 residents, and traffic rates are relatively low thanks to the size and location.
  • Highland Farms: Featuring affordable housing, accessible forested areas, and a supportive community, Highland Farms is one of the most desirable areas in
    Baton Rouge
    . Given the area’s safety and privacy, it should come as no surprise that car insurance is also more affordable for residents.
  • North Baton Rouge: Low crime rates and affordable properties are only a few of the reasons people love living in North Baton Rouge. And thanks to the area’s wide streets and interconnected location, traffic rates are extremely low.
