Popularity is an estimate of how often people search Google for each insurer, from 0 to 100; the bars show how confident the estimate is. Not a rating of the insurer. How the index works

An insurer’s domicile is the state or territory where it is incorporated, and that jurisdiction’s regulator is its primary supervisor. Domicile here comes from the register rows: the Texas Department of Insurance register records each company’s state of domicile, and a captive on the Vermont captive register is domiciled in Vermont. A state’s list is therefore the insurers in this directory that call it home, not its regulator’s own register of every insurer it licenses.

To see where a company is licensed, use the NAIC’s national search, which covers every state: NAIC Consumer Insurance Search
