California homeowners are facing yet another financial strain as rising wildfire risks push insurance costs even higher. Following the devastating Los Angeles wildfires, the state’s FAIR Plan—a last-resort insurer—announced a $1 billion assessment to cover wildfire losses, a move expected to drive up premiums for millions of homeowners. Insurers like State Farm are already seeking emergency rate hikes, while private companies continue withdrawing from high-risk areas, leaving many Californians with fewer, costlier coverage options. As affordability concerns mount, this growing insurance crisis threatens to make homeownership even more unattainable in one of the nation’s most expensive housing markets.
