Local things Paducah homeowners and drivers should know

Earthquakes and the 20% deductible

Since 1976 the USGS has recorded 44 earthquakes of magnitude 2.5 or greater within 31 miles of Paducah; the largest was a magnitude 4.0 near Bardwell in 2003. McCracken is in Kentucky's Far West earthquake region, where the lowest deductible an insurer offers can be as high as 20% of the coverage amount. Earthquake coverage is an endorsement or separate policy, and most insurers stop writing it for 30 to 60 days after a noticeable quake.

Flood is a separate policy

Standard homeowners policies exclude flood damage almost across the board, and you don't have to live in a mapped floodplain to flood. There are two main options, the federal NFIP program and private flood carriers, and a waiting period typically applies before coverage starts, so the time to buy is before the forecast turns ugly.

High-mileage commuters

Progressive routinely wins for our clients who commute Murray-to-Paducah or Benton-to-Paducah, because high mileage doesn't scare them. We quote it next to Erie and our other carriers on the same coverage.

Does homeowners insurance cover earthquakes in Paducah?
Not on its own. Earthquake coverage is an endorsement or a separate policy. McCracken County is in Kentucky's Far West earthquake region, where the lowest deductible an insurer offers can be as high as 20% of the coverage amount.

Does commuting to Paducah affect my auto insurance?
Mileage is one of the things carriers weigh differently. Progressive often wins for our clients who commute Murray-to-Paducah or Benton-to-Paducah, because high mileage doesn't scare them. We compare it against Erie and our other carriers on the same coverage so you can see the difference.
