Slashed Prices at JHC: Love Living In Jeppe Oval and Umndeni Gardens

Jeppestown and Fordsburg are among some of Jozi’s most buzzing areas. With Jeppestown being close enough to Maboneng, and Fordsburg being the home of Oriental Plaza, these places are gems in the city of gold. The Johannesburg Housing Company has amazing deals on flats to rent in these areas, and we threw in a little something special to ease the stress of your first month living with us. But first, let’s look at what you can expect when living here. 

The Jewel That Is Jeppestown

Some of the most renowned photographers in the city have been known to call Jeppestown, or Jeppe, home. Every day, a large number of cameramen and women are known to be in the area, taking pictures of visitors as they explore different areas of Jeppe. On the other hand, Jeppestown's map is fascinating and thrilling. There are many eateries and shops that provide a broad variety of options, including food from across the globe, apparel designs from some skilled and well-known designers, and home decor in the Maboneng and Jewel City sections of the city. Additionally, there are bookshops stocked with a wide variety of literature, including Sci-Fi, African fiction, and South African history. Jeppe has more picturesque views galore. 

Fordsburg, The Oriental Centre 

Fordsburg is referred to as Johannesburg's "Little India" because of its vividly coloured streets, strong incense and spice aromas, and plenty of discounts. It now has a distinct pulse. The roads are lined with halaal eateries, the Oriental Plaza—a retail centre built by the past government for Indian-owned businesses - is a popular destination, and the Market Square area, which underwent reconstruction in 2009, adds even more appeal to attract tourists. Fordsburg is located near other inner-city neighbourhoods (Newtown, Braamfontein, and Maboneng precincts in particular) that have recently had a fashion comeback.
