The City Centrecitycentre.jpg













The Voortrekkers under the leadership of Andries Potgieter founded the town (Pietersburg) now Polokwane on the farm Sterkloop in 1884 providing 150 erven covering 2 200 morgen. Polokwane has enjoyed a stable economic gropwth and has grown rapidly given its proximity to Gauteng and the rich agricultural district surrounding it.

The town of Pietersburg / Polokwane earned city status on 23 April 1992 and is now the major centre and capital city of the province, indeed for the country's entire area north of Gauteng.

The city of Polowane holds an enviable position. Its proximity as a major centre near the neighbouring countries of Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Swaziland make it a strategically located, fully equipped destination, and it is within convenient distance from the Kruger National Park and Magoesbaskloof.

Pietersburg / Polokwane boasts excellent accommodation, fine weather and a busy, friendly population, making it the ideal business or getaway destination in the geographic and economic heart of the Limpopo Province.

Polokwane, the capital of Limpopo province, is the largest metropolitan complex in the north and a major economic centre. Its proximity to the neighbouring countries of Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Swaziland, as well as its convenient distance from the Kruger National Park and Magoebaskloof, makes it a perfect gateway and good destination in itself.

Expensive city
written by James , September 18, 2008

Polokwane houses are very expensive and no one earning between R3 500.00 and R12 000.00 can afford to own one as only RDP houses are offered to the needy. I middle income people cannot own houses but a not working people can own them. Rental houses are also expensive. No wonder middle income people are renting from RDP houses not by choice but by default.

NO Crime ??
Polokwane is riddled with crime, the economy of Polokwane, just as South Africa is ridiculous. Houses are unaffordable, there is absolutely nothing for children to do. You need to travel at least 100km's to be "somewhere". Stay away from this 5tyh world corrupt place !!!
