“Technology is not a luxury. Today it is an essential tool to save, protect and connect our homes.” – Eduardo Perez, home automation expert at Consumer Reports. In 2025, smart home technology no longer belongs to science fiction or Hollywood mansions. It’s here, accessible and ready to transform the lives of millions of Hispanic families in the United States. And the best part: it can help you save money, improve your safety and take care of your loved ones without the hassle.

According to Statista, it is estimated that by the end of this year, more than 63% of U.S. homes will have at least one smart device installed, such as thermostats, cameras or virtual assistants. The smart home is no longer a trend: it is an evolution of the modern lifestyle.

Devices like Amazon Alexa, Google Nest and Apple HomeKit don’t just respond to your voice.

They can turn on the lights, adjust the temperature or even make the grocery list.

For those living with older adults or young children, they also offer scheduled routines to enhance safety and comfort at home.

Consulting firm IDC indicates that virtual assistants are the most popular segment within the U.S. smart home market, surpassing even security systems.

Within everyone’s reach

Intelligent security systems have been gaining ground rapidly.

Especially among Latino families looking to protect their wealth without paying high monthly payments to traditional companies.

WiFi cameras, motion sensors and smart doorbells such as Ring or Arlo can be monitored from the cell phone and do not require professional installation.

In addition, some states – such as California and Florida – already offer tax incentives for the installation of energy efficiency and safety devices, which represents a double benefit.

Energy savings

Smart thermostats such as Ecobee or Nest Learning Thermostat adjust themselves to optimize the use of air conditioning and heating.

This can represent up to 15% annual savings on electricity bills, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

And if you combine this with programmable LED lights or smart plugs, the long-term economic impact can be even greater.

Smart home technology is no longer inaccessible.

And in the Hispanic community, where a commitment to family wellness and savings is a priority, these advances offer an invaluable opportunity.
