Driving in London: What to Know
The average commute here is about 20 minutes, well under the state average of 29. About 82% of workers drive alone, compared with 67% across California, and almost nobody uses public transit. Because cars are the main way to get around, most households carry more than one vehicle, and each one needs the right coverage. Shorter commutes can mean lower annual mileage, which is one of the main factors insurers must weigh.

More About London
London is a small, tight-knit unincorporated community in Tulare County, set among the orchards and fields of the San Joaquin Valley. Here’s what makes it a good home base:
- Farm country all around. London sits amid citrus groves and farmland, so spring brings orange blossom scent and winter brings bright fruit hanging in the trees.
- Easy reach of the Sierra. Sequoia National Park is roughly a 1.5 hour drive east, making a day among the giant sequoias very doable from town.
- Nearby Dinuba. The city of Dinuba is a short drive away for restaurants, groceries and local events, so everyday errands stay close to home.
- Valley seasons and sunsets. Wide open skies, snow-capped Sierra views on clear winter days and warm summer evenings give the community a relaxed, small-town feel.
London Car Insurance FAQ
Does a short commute help my insurance rate in London?
It can. Annual mileage is one of the top factors California insurers must weigh, and the average commute here is about 20 minutes. Be sure each quote uses your real mileage.
Is car theft something I should plan for in Tulare County?
Countywide, the 2025 rate was about 2.4 thefts per thousand people, below the state average of 3.2. Comprehensive coverage still pays for theft, fire, flood and vandalism, which liability-only does not.
Is the state minimum enough for a London driver?
The minimum is 30/60/15, meaning $30,000 per person, $60,000 per accident and $15,000 for property damage. It does not cover your own car, so compare quotes with higher limits if you want more protection.
