Frequently asked questions
Does the free site stay free?
Yes. Every suburb profile, every data point, every comparison on streetsignal.co.za remains free and open to everyone. Data products provide structured access (PDF reports, API, embeds) for organisations that need neighbourhood intelligence integrated into their own workflows.
Does StreetSignal remain editorially independent?
Yes. Data products provide access to the same data that powers the free site. They do not influence how data is presented. No suburb is scored or framed differently based on commercial relationships. The methodology is public and the same for every suburb.
Which products are available now?
The REST API and embeddable widgets are live today, free for non-commercial use with attribution. PDF neighbourhood reports are in development and demand-led: register your interest and we will prioritise what people actually need.
What data is available?
Everything on the free site. Cape Town's 744 suburbs carry 12 data dimensions: safety indices (CHI composite, rate and volume sub-indices, crime category breakdowns), property valuations, school outcomes, transport connectivity, healthcare access, household conditions, civic responsiveness, and more. Johannesburg's 406 suburbs carry precinct-level crime, schools, amenities, and minibus taxi access, with more dimensions as they clear verification.
