If your Farmers renewal in Illinois came in higher, this is the source: Farmers filed for a rate increase (SERFF FARM-134602571) and it was approved at +4.0% on about 97,360 policyholders, effective August 11, 2025. The figures below are approved filings pulled from the public SERFF system — not estimates — and every one links to its filing.
Other Illinois insurers are cutting.
An increase is only worth acting on relative to the alternatives, and in Illinois the direction is not uniform: Pekin (−2.1%) filed decreases in the same period. A Farmers increase alongside competitor cuts is the clearest signal there is that the market has moved and your renewal has not.
