“The average cost of flood insurance throughout Louisiana is $726 due to rainfall averages of 60 inches. The occurrence of hurricanes can also impact flood insurance rates.
However, the figures specifically for New Orleans have yet to be compiled and will vary depending on your insurance provider.
If you can pair your flood insurance and home insurance with
car insurance
, you stand to save money off one of the most expensive states for flood insurance and home insurance in general.
