Is there a lot of crime in Cape Town?

"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. Despite the high crime rate, the South African government has implemented a number of initiatives to reduce crime in the city, including increased police presence and improved security measures," said another expat in Cape Town, South Africa.
