Frequently asked questions

What is included in each city guide?

Each city has one guide. It starts with the pros and cons of living there, with useful visiting evidence included in the same pros and cons when it is relevant.

Are visiting, family, student, moving and retirement pages separate?

No. Those considerations are combined into one city guide so the same evidence is not repeated across multiple near-duplicate URLs.

Does this list include every place in South Africa?

No. It focuses on the cities covered by CityVerdict. Smaller towns, resorts and rural destinations may not appear here.
