Don’t underestimate passive security.

Plant rose bushes or cactus under your windows. Build a fence around your back yard and cover it with thorny bushes like a bougainvillea. Plant bushes near the front door so there’s only one rout to enter/escape. Build a low fence or hedge around the front yard so people can see in, but it’s an obstacle to entry/escape. Get a dog that barks at strangers.

Also, don’t leave anything valuable in plain sight.
