dc.description.abstractEnglish: This article examines the phenomenon of backyard housing in Gauteng, a prominent driver of urban spatial change in South Africa’s housing market. Backyard housing in South Africa increasingly attracts the attention of policymakers because of the large number of households that this sector accommodates. Moreover, the role played by backyard housing in the overall small-scale rental-housing sector is significant, particularly in Gauteng where a large proportion of households rent their primary dwelling. Drawing on quantitative geo-demographic data from GeoTerraImage (GTI) (2010), Knowledge Factory’s Cluster Plus (2010) as well as StatsSA Census 2011, this article documents the spatial footprint of backyard housing in Gauteng and examines the implications of the findings for infrastructure service planning at the municipal scale.en_ZA
dc.description.abstractAfrikaans: Hierdie artikel ondersoek die verskynsel van agterplaasakkomodasie in Gauteng, een van die prominente oorsake van ruimtelike verandering in Suid-Afrika se stedelike behuisingsmark. Agterplaasakkommodasie in Suid-Afrika trek al hoe meer die aandag van beleidmakers weens die groot aantal huishoudings wat in die sektor geakkommodeer word. Bowendien speel agterplaasakkomodasie ’n baie belangrike rol in die algehele kleinskaalse huur-huismark, veral in Gauteng waar ’n groot persentasie van huishousings hul primêre behuising uitverhuur. Deur gebruik te maak van kwantitatiewe ruimtelike geo-demografiese data van GeoTerraImage (GTI) (2010), Knowledge Factory se Cluster Plus (2010) en StatistiekSA se Sensus 2011, dokumenteer hierdie artikel die ruimtelike voetspoor van agterplaasbehuising in Gauteng en bestudeer die implikasies van die bevindinge vir dienstebeplanning op ’n munisipale skaal.af
