Best MA car insurance for bundling home and auto
If you’re a homeowner, your insurance decisions usually shift from “cheapest” to “best fit.” Your auto policy needs to help protect the life you’ve built, including your property, savings and the people who depend on you most.
Many drivers start with bundling auto and home insurance because it’s an easy way to simplify policy management and qualify for discounts. But even without bundling, homeownership can still work in your favor. Some carriers offer homeowner-specific discounts or higher coverage limits that better reflect what you’re protecting.
In Massachusetts, Jerry sees most home-owning customers choosing GEICO, Bristol West and Liberty Mutual for their auto coverage, with or without bundling those policies. Here’s what each top carrier offers and why Jerry customers pick them most often.

Best car insurance for MA families with teen drivers
Adding a teen driver in Massachusetts isn’t just a “small update” to your auto policy. It’s a major pricing event, and the jump can feel disproportionate, especially if your teen is driving infrequently or sharing a family car. The key is knowing which carriers are more competitive for teen drivers and which ones price them sky-high by default.
Over the last year, Jerry has helped 323 MA families with teen drivers save an average of $599 annually, most often with Embark.Here’s a look at what those most popular carriers offer and why Jerry customers choose them.

Best car insurance for MA college students
College can turn a “set it and forget it” policy into a moving target. A driver might change addresses, drive fewer miles, or keep a car on campus for part of the year and at home for the rest. If your policy doesn’t keep up, you can end up overpaying, underprotected or both.
In the past 12 months, Jerry has helped 2,613 college students in Massachusetts find affordable coverage that still protects them whether they’re on or off campus, driving home for the summer or something in between. GEICO, Embark and Bristol West are the top choices for Jerry college students in this state.

Best MA car insurance for drivers with violations
Tickets, at-fault accidents and DUIs can push you into the “high-risk” bucket fast, which can not only raise your premiums but also limit the carriers and coverage options available to you. But these mistakes don’t have to define your insurance forever.
Jerry has helped 1,165 Massachusetts drivers with violations find coverage this past year at affordable prices. We also monitor rates and let you know when to shop rates again after those violations fall off your driving record, so you can potentially save even more.
The majority of Jerry drivers with a less-than-perfect driving record find coverage through GEICO, Embark and Bristol West — companies that are often more willing to work with Massachusetts drivers who have violations on their record.

Car insurance options for MA military families
Whether you’re active-duty, reserve, guard or veteran, military life shapes how you drive, where you keep your car and how often you move. Jerry has helped Massachusetts military families find coverage that can keep up with deployments, PCS moves and everything in between.
If you qualify for military-focused insurers, they should always be on your shortlist. At the same time, many standard insurers offer solid military discounts and flexible policies that Jerry can quote and compare for you.
Here’s how to think about your options.
Option A: Military-only insurers to check directly
Some companies are built specifically for military members and their families. These include USAA, Navy Federal, Armed Forces Insurance and similar providers.
If you’re eligible, they at least belong on your short list. That’s because they’re designed around deployments, PCS orders and frequent moves. These insurers often have storage or reduced-use options when your car sits on base or at home during deployment. Additionally, their customer service teams understand military pay, orders and timelines in a way civilian-focused insurers sometimes don’t.
Because of how these insurers work, Jerry can’t always show live quotes or internal ratings for them. If you qualify, the smart move is to:
1. Use Jerry to see how strong your options are with standard insurers, then
2. Get a direct quote from one or more military-only insurers and compare.
That way, you’re not guessing. You’re stacking their offer against real, competitive market pricing.
Option B: Standard insurers with strong military benefits (that Jerry can quote)
Military-only providers are not the only option. Several national insurers offer military discounts, handle deployments and out-of-state moves well and are already tightly integrated with Jerry’s quote and switch flow.
For many MA military families, GEICO, State Farm and Progressive are common contenders.
1. GEICO
Best for: Deployment flexibility with strong discount potential
Why it often works well for service members:
-
Military discounts plus options to adjust coverage when you deploy or drive less.
-
24/7 support that’s practical for OCONUS and rotating schedules.
-
Fast app access for proof of insurance, claims and policy changes.
2. State Farm
Best for: Base-to-base moves with in-person help
Why it often works well:
-
Extensive agent network that can travel with you across states.
-
Strong local presence in many military communities.
-
Simple bundling when you add home or condo protection.
3. Progressive
Best for: Changing routines and digital management
Why it could be a good fit:
-
Competitive pricing across many profiles, including frequent movers.
-
Self-serve tools to update address, mileage and garaging.
-
Popular add-ons like rental and roadside for times when you’re away from home support.
Jerry can’t claim to “rank” USAA or Navy Federal against these carriers, but we can show you in minutes how GEICO, State Farm, Progressive and other standard insurers price your situation in Massachusetts.

How Jerry picks the best insurers in Massachusetts
Most sites just sort companies by price. Jerry does more.
No one wants to overpay for insurance, but Jerry knows that other factors matter, too. We use our own proprietary Jerry Score to grade each insurance company. Built from real Massachusetts driver data, this score evaluates insurers on:
Customer satisfaction
What customers say after they’ve filed a claim or made changes, not just when they first buy.
Value for your money
The best balance of price and protection, not just the lowest premium on the page.
Claims experience
How quickly and fairly claims get paid, especially after real crashes and storm damage.
Financial strength
Whether the company has the backing to pay out when major events hit.
Quality of coverage
How easy it is to get high liability limits, comprehensive and collision, and useful add-ons like rental reimbursement and roadside.
Product availability
Where coverage is offered, the protections available and what sort of add-ons customers can choose from to truly customize their policy.
The result? We show you a short list of options tailored to how you actually drive and what you actually own.

Drivers who switch with Jerry save an average of $54/mo on car insurance.
