How Bankrate chose the best car insurance companies in Pennsylvania

As we searched for the best car insurance companies in Pennsylvania, we looked at several aspects of each company. First, we analyzed average auto insurance premiums from Quadrant Information Services. We also factored in third-party scores from J.D. Power, AM Best, Standard & Poor’s and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC). Finally, we researched each company’s coverage offerings, discounts and digital tools. We chose these metrics to help give you a well-rounded view of each carrier.

To make understanding our research easier, we combined all this information into a proprietary Bankrate Score. Scores are on a scale from 0.0 to 5.0. The higher a company’s Bankrate Score, the more highly that company fared in the underlying categories. Using the Bankrate Score as a guideline helps you quickly identify how the companies stack up.
