If Johannesburg is known as the City of Gold, Sandton is most certainly why. This city is teeming with opportunities and abundance. All who visit Sandton keep coming back and there's definitely a reason. This is the place to be if you want to succeed in business.
A brief history of the area
Sandton started out differently than the glitzy city it is today. Initially, an area that was home to many horse holdings and stables, this small residential area grew to become a breeding ground for the upper-crust, elites of society. It was given municipality status in 1969 as its independence and popularity continued to grow.
Modern developments began in the area soon after and it became a hub of small businesses and a symbol of national growth.
Distance from key points (Airport/CBD)
O.R Tambo International Airport is approximately 30,4 km (34 minutes) away via the N3 Eastern Bypass. Johannesburg's CBD is 15,2 km (22 minutes) away via the M1 or De Villiers Graaf Motorway. There are easily accessible highways in and out of the city.
Climate
Sandton has a subtropical highland climate. Johannesburg is known for having dry summers and wet winters. Temperatures can be expected to drop below 10°C during the cold months and reach highs of 30°C in summer. It's a wonderful area to enjoy outdoor activities and with many living in apartments within the city, ideal to grow a small garden on your windowsill or balcony.
Schools in the area
An educated society is essential to a city's success and this is no different in Sandton. There is an abundance of schools for children of all ages. They are closely located to residential and corporate areas to make drop off and pick up for the busy individual as convenient as possible. Select from Sandton Junior Morningside Pre-Primary School, King David Primary School, Redhill School, Sandown High School, Hyde Park High School, St Stithians College and more.
Healthcare in the area
There are numerous hospitals, clinics, general practitioners and pharmacies in Sandton. Choose to be treated at Mediclinic Sandton Hospital, Intercare Day Hospital, Netcare Sunninghill Hospital, Sandown Clinic and Petervale Clinic amongst others. For your pets, there is also Riverclub Veterinary Clinic and Parkmore Veterinary Clinic close by. There are many vets located at different spots of the city for easy access whenever your pet needs attention.
Shopping centres
Sandton City is arguably one of South Africa's best malls. It features over 300 stores dedicated to keeping its well-heeled patrons in the latest fashions. With a balanced mix of international and local designers, this establishment is where every retailer wants to be.
