Most insurance agencies talk about being “local.” We actually are — our office sits at 3333 S. Bannock St., Suite 880, right here in Englewood. When you work with Agency of the Rockies, you’re working with neighbors who deal with the same hail, the same premiums, and the same South Metro roads you do. We make insurance not suck, and we’d put our Englewood home and auto coverage up against any agency in Colorado.
Insurance built for Englewood and the South Metro
Englewood sits in Arapahoe County just south of Denver, and homeowners and drivers here face the same Front Range risks as the rest of the metro — with a few local wrinkles. Whether you’re in an older bungalow near South Broadway, a newer build near Englewood CityCenter, or a townhome close to Swedish Medical Center, your coverage should reflect how and where you actually live. Being based in town means we know these neighborhoods, these ZIP codes (80110, 80113), and the storms that roll through them.
Why Englewood premiums keep climbing
Colorado homeowners insurance has climbed roughly 65% over the past five years, putting the state among the ten most expensive in the country. The biggest reason isn’t wildfire — it’s hail. The Colorado Division of Insurance found that hail is the single largest driver of homeowners premiums statewide, responsible for anywhere from a quarter to more than half of a typical premium. The Denver-Englewood area gets hammered nearly every season; the May 2024 metro storm alone caused more than $2 billion in damage.
On auto, the South Metro benefits from a recent statewide drop in vehicle theft — down about a third from 2024 to 2025 — but the Denver metro still sees the bulk of Colorado’s stolen cars, and that keeps comprehensive coverage important for Englewood drivers.
Home insurance in Englewood
With hail driving so much of the cost here, the fine print on your homeowners policy is where the real money is:
- Roof coverage type. Replacement cost vs. actual cash value can be a multi-thousand-dollar difference after a hail claim. We’ll tell you which you have.
- Your hail/wind deductible. Often a separate percentage of your home’s value — you want to know that number now, not mid-claim.
- Extended replacement cost. Protects you from being underinsured as rebuild costs rise.
- Impact-resistant roof discounts and Colorado’s new SB-155 hail-roof grant program, which can lower what you pay.
Auto insurance in Englewood
Between Santa Fe, Broadway, Hampden, and the run up to I-25, Englewood drivers cover a lot of ground. We help you get the coverage that fits:
- Comprehensive coverage for hail dents and theft — not just the state-minimum liability.
- Liability limits sized to protect your home and savings.
- Uninsured/underinsured motorist protection for crowded metro roads.
- Home-and-auto bundling for a multi-policy discount and one agent who knows your whole picture.
Umbrella coverage for added peace of mind
Own your home, have a teen driver, or built up some assets? An umbrella policy stacks extra liability protection on top of your home and auto for a surprisingly small yearly cost. We’ll give you a straight answer on whether it’s worth it for you.
