Purplish: Colorado in the top 10 most expensive states for homeowner's insurance

Colorado Public Radio

Colorado is experiencing more, and worse, climate disasters, wrecking havoc on people’s homes — and their homeowner’s insurance rates. Coloradans face rising premiums, less choice and availability, and in some cases, getting dropped by insurers altogether. Today on Purplish, CPR’s Bente Birkeland and Rocky Mountain PBS’ Andrea Kramar look at what’s happening with the home insurance market in Colorado.

Bente Birkeland has been reporting on state legislative issues for KUNC and Rocky Mountain Community Radio since 2006. Originally, from Minnesota, Bente likes to hike and ski in her spare time. She keeps track of state politics throughout the year but is especially busy during the annual legislative session from January through early May.
