This map aims to interpret the neighbourhood incidence of murder over the area covered by the three SAPS Stations in Khayelitsha; viz. Khayelitsha (Site B), Lingelethu West and Harare. The total number of murders is normalised by the number of people living in that area. Areas without houses are not represented on these maps but masked out so as to focus on the experience of residential areas. The place names are the site and sections as defined by the broader Khayelitsha community.
