As California fire disasters worsen, insurers are pulling out and stranding homeowners
As California wildfires grow larger and more intense, an increasing number of insurance companies are not renewing policies for customers who live in areas they deem too risky to cover. The state estimates that more than 1 million California homes are considered at high risk for wildfires.
A California Department of Insurance report found that the number of homeowners in the wildland-urban interface who complained about getting dropped by their plans more than tripled between 2010 to 2016. Complaints about increased premiums rose 217 percent.
California is in the midst of historic fire losses over the last 12 months, with more than 10,000 homes lost and more than 50 people killed. Experts expect the toll will make insurers look even more closely at their level of risk in California.
