AfricanCrisis Archive - 110,000 Articles from 2001 to 2012
This is my archive of my oldest articles, writings and news from my original website which ran from 2001 to 2012. In total, I managed to recover 110,000 articles. You can read them, search them and view them at this link. Just click SEARCH on the top right.
[Here’s a great crime stats website. I’m not sure if they’ve stopped updating as of the end of 2016. It looks like it. You can zoom in and view the crimes by city and suburb, nation-wide. I zoomed in on Johannesburg and most of the regions especially the suburbs where I live, you’ll see the crime is about 7,000-8,000 incidents per year per “area”. The areas cover one or more suburbs. A wealthy place like Sandton has 11,000 crimes per annum. The countryside seems to have less crime, but remember the population density is MUCH LOWER. So it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re safer in the countryside – a myth that many seem to believe and which runs completely contrary to actual experience. Jan]
