Getting to know Randburg
Living in the Randburg area
On the north-western edge of Johannesburg, Cosmo City is the area's success story: built in the mid 2000s as South Africa's first fully integrated, mixed-income new town, planned from day one around family life with schools, parks, clinics, a library and police station built into the layout. Around 15 000 homes make it a genuine suburb, not just a development, and new estates in the surrounding area continue the growth.
Getting around
Malibongwe Drive is the spine of the area, connecting residents to Randburg, the N14 and the N1, with Lanseria International Airport up the road. A strong minibus taxi network runs to Randburg, Sandton and Fourways, and ride-hailing services operate throughout, so living here without a car is realistic.
Shopping and daily life
Cosmo Mall, around 22 000 square metres on Malibongwe Drive, covers groceries, banking, clothing and fast food, with its own taxi rank and a pedestrian bridge over the highway for safe access. Smaller centres inside Cosmo City handle daily essentials, and the suburb's dozens of parks give kids space to play.
What homes cost
The area remains one of the most accessible ways to own in greater Johannesburg, with 2 bedroom homes typically from the mid R500 000s and 3 bedroom homes from the mid R600 000s, rising toward and past R1 million for larger or upgraded properties. Strong demand keeps the market healthy.
Why first-time buyers choose this area
A real Johannesburg address, amenities that were planned rather than promised, and transport links that work for commuters. Ask us what is currently available in and around Cosmo City.
