At the $300,000-dwelling / $100,000-liability / $1,000-deductible coverage level, Great Falls' cited annual premium (~$3,460, Insure.com) ran approximately 34% above the national average cited at that same coverage level (~$2,582) -- a real, disclosed, less-favorable cost this record does not soften.
A Lower-Coverage Citation Still Runs Above Montana's Own State Average
A separate citation put Great Falls' premium for a $200,000 home at approximately $2,621/year (~$288/month) -- described as running about $16/month above Montana's own state average ($272/month), meaning Great Falls runs above-average even within an already-elevated statewide context.
Attributed to Montana's Real Wildfire, Hail, and Severe-Weather Exposure
The source cited above attributed Great Falls' and Montana's elevated premiums to the state's real, disclosed wildfire, hail, and severe-weather exposure described on the flood-hurricane-risk topic page -- a real, genuine cost driver this record does not attribute to a single isolated factor.
