"Cape Town has a high crime rate, with a range of criminal activities including robbery, burglary, and carjacking. Violent crime is also a problem, with incidents of assault, rape, and murder occurring in the city. Drug-related crime is also a major issue, with gangs and organized crime groups operating in the area.
