According to the Provincial African Peer Review Mechanism the lack of access to basic services, the influx of refugees and the internal migration of people from the Eastern Cape are some of the causes of most conflicts in the Western Cape.

The final report states that tension, violence and conflict in the province derive from a number of sources.

A daily newspaper reports conflict caused by organised crime involved gangsterism, taxi violence, marine poaching and xenophobic conflicts between provinces in South Africa were at the top.

Class and racial division were however found to be one of the biggest
problems.
