How are the volume tiers calculated?

Precincts are ranked by total reported crime in the latest SAPS reporting period (Apr–Jun 2026) and split into quintiles within their province: the lowest fifth is Very Low, the next Low, then Moderate, High, and Very High. The label describes reported volume relative to other precincts in the same province — it is not a safety verdict. Quintiles are computed across the precincts published on SafeSuburb — SAPS-listed stations without a published page (renamed, defunct, or ports of entry) are excluded; see the methodology page.

Why does each tier hold roughly the same number of precincts?

Because the tiers are quintiles — each holds a fifth of the province's precincts by construction, so the counts are always near-identical. What differs between tiers is the range of reported crime they cover and how much of the province's total reported crime they account for. A Very High tier typically spans a far wider count range than a Very Low tier, and accounts for a disproportionate share of all reported crime in the province.

Why within a province rather than nationally?

Provinces differ hugely in precinct sizes and reporting volumes. Ranking within a province keeps the comparison between broadly similar contexts, and matches how the tier is shown on precinct pages across the site.

Crime Volume Tiers, Explained

Every precinct page on SafeSuburb shows a volume tier from Very Low to Very High — quintiles of total reported crime within each province for Apr–Jun 2026. Each tier holds a fifth of the province's precincts, so what separates them is the range of reported crime they cover and the share of provincial crime they account for.

Descriptive label based on raw reported counts — larger precincts serve more people. Not a safety verdict. Methodology

Eastern Cape

The Very High fifth — 39 of 200 precincts — accounts for 54.4% of all reported crime in Eastern Cape, while the Very Low fifth accounts for 1.3%.

Tier	Reported crimes	Precincts	Share of province
Very Low	0–32	42	1.3%
Low	36–81	40	5.4%
Moderate	83–216	39	11.9%
High	218–386	40	26.9%
Very High	392–1,350	39	54.4%

Bars are drawn on a single 0–1,350 scale. Eastern Cape's busiest precinct is Kugompo (1,350 reported, Apr–Jun 2026). Each tier holds a fifth of the province's precincts, so the precinct counts are near-equal by design — what changes between tiers is the crime range and the share of provincial crime.

Free State

The Very High fifth — 22 of 113 precincts — accounts for 58.6% of all reported crime in Free State, while the Very Low fifth accounts for 1.8%.

Tier	Reported crimes	Precincts	Share of province
Very Low	2–37	23	1.8%
Low	38–93	23	5.8%
Moderate	98–173	22	11.2%
High	186–351	23	22.7%
Very High	428–2,269	22	58.6%

Bars are drawn on a single 0–2,269 scale. Free State's busiest precinct is Park Road (2,269 reported, Apr–Jun 2026). Each tier holds a fifth of the province's precincts, so the precinct counts are near-equal by design — what changes between tiers is the crime range and the share of provincial crime.
