Go to this site: http://www.crimestatssa.com/index.php

Input your suburb name or the name of your local SAPS Station and be prepared for a shock!

Click on: View All Crime Types For Precinct from 2004 to 2016

In my area the crime in most categories has decreased over the years, which is very contrary to public perception.

Remember the stats are NOT per suburb as the SAPS areas span across suburb boundaries.

Murder matching highest at 12 and Burglary at residential premises way down at 705 against the 1951 of 2006. I think the CPFs getting proper walkie talkies at affordable prices or other security initiatives had a lot to do with that.

I see, that makes sense then. Had another look and saw the precinct spans surrounding neighborhoods as well.
Still a dark red zone though.

Not saying it's in any way related but I moved from PE to Port Alfred initially at the end of 2010 :erm: :eek:
