What is a typical home insurance cost in Mississippi?
Our current modeled benchmark is $1,818 per year, with a broad modeled range of $1,527 to $2,145. This is not a published state average or insurer quote; it is a comparative model anchored to NAIC's 2024 Southeast regional premium average and adjusted using local housing and recent severe-weather data.
Cost by home value in Mississippi
These are model scenarios, not carrier quotes. Home value changes the benchmark sublinearly because insurance coverage and pricing do not move one-for-one with market value.

|---|---|---|---|
| $200,000 | $1,235 | $1,470 | $1,734 |

What the number means
The modeled benchmark combines a published NAIC regional homeowners premium anchor with Census housing values and NOAA severe-weather frequency. It is designed to answer comparative research questions consistently while avoiding the false precision of calling a modeled ZIP or city figure an observed insurance premium.
