The latest crime statistics released by the South African Police Service (SAPS) for the fourth quarter of the 2024/2025 financial year paint a troubling picture of Pretoria’s suburbs.
From hijackings and armed robberies to sexual offences and assaults, Pretoria’s crime hotspots have been clearly identified, and the danger may be closer than you think.
Suburbs Where You Need to Stay Alert
The data shows a sharp increase in serious crimes across the city. These are some of the most dangerous areas in Pretoria right now:
- Akasia: Abductions, contact crimes, assaults, armed robberies, and car theft.
- Mamelodi East: Sexual offences, gender-based violence, hijackings, and property-related crimes.
