StateFarm.com - Here's another company whose slogan has been ingrained into our heads over the years. "Like a good neighbor...State Farm is there". In just over 80 years, State Farm Insurance Companies® has grown from a small farm mutual auto insurer to one of the world's largest financial institutions. But despite their growth, they've stayed consistent with their philosophy to provide insurance coverage at a fair price coupled with fair claim settlement.

State Farm now offers much more than just auto insurance. Since it is beyond the scope of this review to outline Banking Services and Mutual Funds, we're just going to stick to insurance in this particular review.

The "Insurance" tab on Statefarm.com details all of the options available to those seeking an insurance policy. Here, you will find the main types of insurance policies offered, which include Auto, Homeowners, Condo Owners, Renters, Life & Annuities, Health & Disability, Long-Term Care, Business, and Boat insurance.

While we found Statefarm.com to be more complex than the others, especially since they deal with more than just insurance, it is still an easy website to navigate. State Farm is a household name and the numbers speak for themselves. In fact, one out of every 5 automobiles in the United States is insured by them, making it the nation's No. 1 car insurance. They are also the leading insurer of homes in the United States, so it should come as no surprise that we highly recommend State Farm Insurance.
