Black South Africans were relocated to only 8% of South Africa's land. 

Black South Africans were relocated to suburbs/townships (black-only neighborhoods near cities) to work for whites. 

Blacks were fully integrated with whites. 

Blacks were only allowed to live in cities where they could work for white people. 

They were rural (in the countryside) 

They were less developed than other parts of South Africa

They had less or no railroad access 

They were completely owned by whites

Blacks had restricted land ownership there

District 6 continued to be protected as a vibrant neighborhood for South Africa's non-White population

District 6 was determined to be uninhabitable (no one could live there), the buildings were destroyed, and over 60,000 non-White people were removed

District 6 was determined to be for Whites only, the buildings were destroyed, and over 60,000 non-White people were removed

Protest against the government

The land is being used for luxury apartments

The land is being used to construct a shopping mall

The land is being used by the government to build housing that is affordable for everyone

The land is set aside for the non-White population migrating to the city
