Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has announced expected reductions in insurance policy rates across the state, with a significant impact particularly in Miami-Dade County.

DeSantis added that the average discount statewide will be 5.6%, benefiting three out of four homeowners in Miami-Dade. He specified that in Broward County, over 50% of policyholders will see reductions, while in Palm Beach County, 19% of policyholders will benefit, according to officials.
