saw the same bug indoors, wondering how concerned to be. looks like it has all the same grossly visible body parts as a cockroach but it is a much lighter tan than i am used to.

Water bugs are a roach but they aren’t by any means the worst to have.
They are absolutely not. Entirely different order of insects.
They are just as bad. Roaches are bad, it doesn’t matter what kind.
There are varieties of roach that are harder to eliminate. Water bugs tend to be one of the easier varieties to control.
