Data period: 2025-2026 vs 2024-2025. Each cell shows the count and percentage of total crime for that precinct.

Not all crime is the same. An area with high drug arrests but low violent crime has a very different character from one with high murder and robbery rates. This page lets you compare 152 Western Cape police precincts by individual crime category — murder, residential burglary, aggravated robbery, vehicle theft, drug-related crime, and carjacking.

Sort by count to find which precincts report the most cases, or sort by percentage to see where a specific crime dominates. For example, a precinct where drug crime accounts for 60% of all reported crime tells a different story from one where burglary is the primary concern.
