Mamelodi is one of Gauteng’s oldest and largest townships, established in 1945 east of Pretoria and today home to a vast, well-established residential community across dozens of numbered sections.
One of Pretoria’s oldest and largest townships
Mamelodi’s eight decades of history have produced a genuinely deep community identity, with long-settled sections alongside newer extensions still developing on its edges. It functions as a major residential and commercial hub in its own right, with its own transport links, retail centres and schools serving a population larger than many South African towns.
