Insurance programs

Which insurance program exists in my state?

Every state has some form of insurer of last resort, but they are not interchangeable. California’s FAIR Plan covers fire only; Texas splits wind and hail into a separate association; North Carolina runs separate inland and coastal plans.

Facts checked October 8, 2026 against each state’s statute, regulator and program sites (sources below). Notice periods are minimums for an insurer-initiated non-renewal of a homeowners policy; each state page explains the exceptions.

If your state isn’t here

Coverage Clock adds a state only when its deadline and programs can be documented from primary sources and kept current. For any other state, your insurance regulator is the authoritative starting point: the National Association of Insurance Commissioners keeps a directory of every state insurance department.
