What drives home insurance cost in Oklahoma
A homeowners premium mostly reflects how likely and how expensive a claim is. In Oklahoma, the main factors behind the $2,268 average are:
- Tornado Alley
- hail (one of the worst hail states)
- severe convective storms
On top of these location factors, your own premium swings with your home's rebuilding cost (Coverage A), roof age and material, deductible, claims history and, in most states, your insurance credit score. See our premium drivers guide for how each one moves the price.

Is Oklahoma home insurance going up?
Yes, like most of the country. NAIC's latest report shows the national HO-3 average rose about 11.26% in 2022 year-over-year, driven by reconstruction-cost inflation and rising catastrophe losses. 2022 is the latest published data year, so current Oklahoma premiums are likely higher than the figure shown.

No. $2,268 is the NAIC 2022 countrywide average HO-3 premium for Oklahoma - an average across all homes and insurers, not a quote for your property. Your actual premium depends on your home's value, age, construction, roof, deductible, claims history, credit and insurer. Always get real quotes.
