Welp, you know the saying, “Everything is bigger in Texas,” well apparently when it comes to car thefts that saying is also very very true! And Im sure that’s something we wish wasn’t.

When the temperatures get colder, many of us are used to leaving our cars running so they can warm up before we get inside, however, with these new stats you may want to reconsider doing that. Leaving cars runnning is one of the many ways thefts can easily steal a vehicle.

There’s a new report by moneygeek that is showing that Texas has the 10th highest car theft rate in the U.S., with 320 thefts per 100,000 residents in 2021. According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB), full-size pickups and reliable sedans are the top targets for car thieves.
