We have well preserved parks that are great for picnics, dog walks and family day out. Most of the shops are within a walking distance which is helpful when trying to save up on car fuel money. We have less crime that occurs. The police ar easily accessible. We currently have libraries in each community.
Potchefstroom is quite a small town. There is a lot of youth about as this is a university town. The adults here are mainly professional’s ranging from doctors, nurses, lecturers and teachers. It is a well maintained town with a considerably lower crime rate than your typical South African town.
Potchefstroom has a very high rate of crime, it is highly advisable that you close the windows of your car at stop signs and T-junctions. Assure that you have a pepper spray on you all the time just last year a friend of mine had all his Car windows vandalised and the car radio was stolen.
