Abstract: This article explores inequality in South Africa with a particular focus on comparisons between different types of settlements. It demonstrates that the spatial segregation resulting from the apartheid era has a significant impact on the high levels of inequality in the country, and highlights the relationship between proximity to urban amenities and well-being of households.
