A note on methodology: StreetSignal’s safety index is a relative measure comparing reported crime across Cape Town’s 744 suburbs; it is not an absolute safety guarantee. The index is a composite of two sub-dimensions: harm-per-resident (rate) and absolute harm volume. A score of 20/100 means only 20% of suburbs record more harm than Cape Town suburbs by this methodology. Full methodology is documented on the StreetSignal methodology page. Data period: Q3 2025/2026 (October-December 2025).

Why does Delft 1 & 2 score 20 out of 100?

This is a known limitation of precinct-level data: the score reflects the precinct as a whole, not any individual suburb within it.
