How Buda compares

Buda's 122.8 burglaries per 100k residents is 57% lower than the Texas statewide average of 284.3 — most local installs are smart-home and convenience-driven (smart locks, video doorbells, automation) more than burglary deterrent. Compared to Austin city limits (445.1 burglaries per 100k), Buda runs about 72% lower — typical for a more residential, lower-density area.
