Re: home burglaries jump in NorthTexas!
Texas is the fastest growing state in the union. It's no surprise that crimes have increased. Crime rates, however, have decreased. So there are less bad guys per 100,000 but many more 100,000s.
The Constitution preserves the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation where the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. James Madison

With those statistics, Austin and the Rio Grande Valley would not be on my list of desirable locations.

If Austin had 10 the year before and Houston had 100, then it's only be roughly 5 more in austin while 8 more in Houston... on top of the already horrible 10 to 1 ratio.
