2011 Census Suburb Tamboerskloof July 2013 City of Cape Town – 2011 Census Suburb Tamboerskloof July 2013 Compiled by Strategic Development Information and GIS Department (SDI&GIS), City of Cape Town 2011 Census data supplied by Statistics South Africa (Based on information available at the time of compilation as released by Statistics South Africa) The 2011 Census suburbs (190) have been created by SDI&GIS grouping the 2011 Census sub-places using GIS and December 2011 aerial photography. A sub-place is defined by Statistics South Africa “is the second (lowest) level of the place name category, namely a suburb, section or zone of an (apartheid) township, smallholdings, village, sub- village, ward or informal settlement.” Suburb Overview, Demographic Profile, Economic Profile, Dwelling Profile, Household Services Profile 2011 Census Suburb Description 2011 Census suburb Tamboerskloof includes the following sub-places: Tamboerskloof. 1 Data Notes: The following databases from Statistics South Africa (SSA) software were used to extract the data for the profiles: Demographic Profile – Descriptive and Education databases Economic Profile – Labour Force and Head of Household databases Dwelling Profile – Dwellings database Household Services Profile – Household Services database In some Census suburbs there may be no data for households, or a very low number, as the Census suburb has population mainly living in collective living quarters (e.g. hotels, hostels, students’ residences, hospitals, prisons and other institutions) or is an industrial or commercial area. In these instances the number of households is not applicable. All tables have the data included, even if at times they are “0”, for completeness. The tables relating to population, age and labour force indicators would include the population living in these collective living quarters. The Census suburbs where the population is categorised as living mainly in collective living quarters or is an industrial or commercial area, the average household size has been excluded as it is not applicable. There are some Census suburbs with an average household size that have a small percentage of the population living in collective living quarters within that Census suburb, and this could artificially inflate the average household size. 2011 Census Suburb Overview 2011 Census Suburb 2011 Tamboerskloof Population 2 984 Households 1 506 Average Household Size 1.98 In 2011 the population of 2011 Census suburb Tamboerskloof was 2 984 and the number of households was 1 506. The average household size was 1.98. A household is defined as a group of persons who live together, and provide themselves jointly with food or other essentials for living, or a single person who lives alone (Statistics South Africa). The population and household numbers above are to be used and quoted as the official numbers for this 2011 Census suburb for 2011. Key results for 2011 Census Suburb Tamboerskloof: The population is predominantly White (76%). 95% of those aged 20 years and older have completed Grade 12 or higher. 97% of the labour force (aged 15 to 64) is employed. 12% of households have a monthly income of R3 200 or less. 99.7% of households live in formal dwellings. 99.8% of households have access to piped water in their dwelling or inside their yard. 99% of households have access to a flush toilet connected to the public sewer system. 99% of households have their refuse removed at least once a week. 99.6% of households use electricity for lighting in their dwelling. Note: There are small variations in the total population and the number of households in the tables which follow. These occur as Statistics South Africa had to calculate the true population to correct omissions and double counts in the enumeration process. In addition when the data is extracted using the Statistics South Africa software, it randomly rounds off all cells to a base number 3, including the totals. These variations are not significant.

  • Why the City of Cape Town Could and Should Budget to Spend More on Informal Settlement Taps and Toilets in 2020/2021
    budget OCTOBERanalysis 2020 1/9 A 1 CITY OF CAPE TOWN 26 OCTOBER 2020 A ASIVIKELANE LET’S PROTECT ONE ANOTHER VOICES OF INFORMAL SETTLEMENT RESIDENTS DURING THE COVID-19 CRISIS WHY THE CITY OF CAPE TOWN COULD AND SHOULD BUDGET TO SPEND MORE ON INFORMAL SETTLEMENT TAPS AND TOILETS IN 2020/2021 by Carlene van der Westhuizen and Albert van Zyl, October 2020 Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, a 2018 study warned that in informal settlements “the unclean- liness of the existing sanitation facilities contributes to health issues like water-borne diseases.” 1 As the last six months of Asivikelane data show, large numbers of Cape Town informal settlement residents share communal taps and toilets, and these high-use facilities are not sufficiently maintained.2 These chal- lenges were highlighted by COVID-19, but they preceded it and will persist and escalate unless the City of Cape Town responds on a much larger scale. Our analysis shows that despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Cape Town has not increased its budget allocations for informal settlements taps and toilets in its main 2020/21 budget or subsequent adjustment budgets. The City did, however, budget for an accumulated cash surplus of over R5 billion at the end of the current financial year. The City could therefore afford to scale up its delivery of informal settlement services significantly without posing a risk to its long-term fiscal health. Like every other government in the world, now is the time for the City to dig into its reserves to respond to the current crisis and prevent future crises.
