, Johannesburg Municipality Region A: Ivory Park
The Johannesburg Municipality is a metropolitan municipality, it executes all local functions and in the
city of Johannesburg. Ivory Park is a densely populated township founded in the early 90s. I chose Ivory
Park for my case study because it is often identified as an informal settlement, yet it is a township with
vibrant residents from different cultures, with a sense of togetherness. Ivory Park has come a long way
in terms of service provision since it was founded in the early 1990sand still has a long way to go to
improve service provision. This residential area is home to a police station, two libraries, five clinics, a
shopping complex, and two community.
