Is Llandudno safe?

Lower reported crime

20th percentile among 744 suburbs · volume-based score (tourist precinct adjustment) · relative index, not an absolute safety measure

Very low Absolute crime volume
4 912 reported crimes per year · city median: 10 468
↑ 0.6% vs Q3 2024
Llandudno is a tourist precinct. The headline score reflects absolute crime volume only - 88/100 - because the per-capita rate is distorted by a small residential population serving a much larger visitor population. Actual crime volume is very low - just 4 912 per year, well below the city median of 10 468. For residents, this is one of the quieter parts of Cape Town. Contact crime (assault, robbery) dominates the reported crime profile.

Precinct population note: This suburb shares Hout Bay police precinct with Hout Bay, which accounts for 97% of the precinct's residential population. The safety index is based on the whole precinct, where Hout Bay accounts for most of the population. This may not fully reflect conditions in Llandudno specifically.

Household survey context: All 35 surveyed households reported no crime victimisation (2024 CCT Household Survey). In areas where precinct-level crime data suggests elevated risk, zero survey reporting may reflect reluctance to disclose rather than absence of crime.

Tourist-precinct adjustment. The headline score uses the volume sub-index (88/100) instead of the composite (40/100). Llandudno's per-capita crime rate is calculated against a small resident population, but the SAPS precinct serves far more visitors than residents. The composite punishes Llandudno for a high per-capita rate that is an artefact of the small population denominator. The volume sub-index measures absolute crime only and is not affected by this distortion. Both scores are shown in the data table for transparency. Full methodology.

This data reflects crimes reported to SAPS Hout Bay precinct, which covers Llandudno and surrounding suburbs. Reported crime may differ from actual crime levels. Full methodology

FOR COMMUTERS

How connected is Llandudno?

Private vehicle dominant

The most common way people get to work is by private vehicle (100%).

Commute mode share

Anyone relocating to Llandudno needs a car. The 100% private vehicle share is a socioeconomic profile signal, not a walkability score – in working-class Cape Town suburbs the same walking rate indicates structural necessity. Here it is lifestyle choice.
Private vehicle
100%
Cape Town transport context: In South African cities, transport mode is a socioeconomic proxy – high private vehicle = affluent, high minibus taxi = working class, high walking = structural necessity not preference. StreetSignal reports modal share rather than a walkability index, which would misrepresent SA urban mobility. Methodology ›
