Roodepoort became part of the Suburbian Johannesburg city in 1977, and has since developed as one of Johannesburg’s most prominent Afrikaans speaking parts of the city. Roodepoort has seen large population growth due to Johannesburg urban sprawl. Areas of interest for entertainment include the Featherbrooke Village shopping centre which is one of the student hotspots. Roodepoort has a wide variety of restaurants and shopping centres.
Roodepoort is the proud home of the Roodepoort Record. This vibrant community newspaper was established in 1978 with a staff of two people. This was the start of what became the West Rand branch of Caxton Community Newspapers. It operated from the Afmed offices in Albertskroon (northwest of Johannesburg) and was published twice monthly. Due to the phenomenal growth of the municipalities, Maraisburg, Florida and Roodepoort, Roodepoort was declared a city. With 51,800 copies distributed weekly in an area of the West Rand that has large buying power, it pays to advertise in the Roodepoort Record Newspaper.
