A township in South Africa refers to a segregated neighborhood, usually one outside a major city. Historically, townships were established during the apartheid era as residential areas for non-white populations, particularly Blacks, Coloureds, and Indians, who were forcibly removed from urban centers and established in these areas. Townships are often characterized by socioeconomic challenges and are distinct from wealthy neighborhoods, which are generally located within major cities.
