The article notes faster auto insurance growth and steep hikes by major insurers in South Carolina since 1999. State Farm raised homeowners rates 6.2 percent in 2001, 15.5 percent in 2002, and 19 percent in 2003. Allstate and Nationwide also imposed double digit increases, drawing advocacy calls for policy changes and a shift toward deregulation.
