Laredo drivers average a 21.3-minute commute, shorter than the national 26.6. Here is what that, Webb County's hail and the local crash record mean for your policy.
How Laredo drives
The average commute in Laredo is 21.3 minutes each way — shorter than the national average of 26.6. 90.7% of workers get there by car, 79.3% driving alone and 11.4% carpooling; 0.8% take public transit.
Annual mileage is a rating factor: every mile on the road is exposure. If you work from home or your commute has changed since you last bought a policy, say so — it is one of the few rating factors you can update yourself.
6.1% of Laredo households have no vehicle at all. If you drive occasionally without owning a car, a non-owner policy is the cheaper way to stay covered.

Fatal crashes in Laredo, 2019–2023
Federal records show 76 fatal crashes inside Laredo city limits over those five years, in which 87 people died. 57% happened after dark. 19 involved a pedestrian.
This is why liability limits matter more than the premium difference suggests. The state minimum is the least you can legally carry, not a measure of what a serious crash costs — and anything above your limit is yours to pay.
