True Cape Town was my first choice ( I am a visual artist and have plans in SA) because I am European but after diving deeper coming from a multicultural place and mixed race I'd rather prefer JHB for the vibe, the creativity and the people. So yes it is easier to do it in JHB. By the way your country is amazing
Johannesburg is the heartbeat of South Africa, finance, Media, Music, Business, Sports and other industries r mostly based in Johannesburg. Yeah, Cape Town is a tourist/ Holiday City, that's why is too expensive. Things like food/grocery properties they r expensive because of the tourist using dollar or Euros or Pound but Johannesburg is affordable compared to Cape Town. It is easy to socialize in Johannesburg
south africa belongs to other people too. its quite alright that cape town gives you europe vibes, africa is the 2nd biggest piece of land on earth. cape town is absolutely unique in africa.
The urban planning in Cape Town means you see the squatter camps close to the wealthy areas whereas in Joburg, everything is very spread out and wealthier areas are very far away from poor areas. The squatter camps in Joburg are basically hidden away far out of town compared to Cape Town
Joburg is the one. If you’re into a fast paced life, like to network and be in the thick of things. If you like to be around super successful BLACK people, then you want to live in Joburg.
burning nostrils from 8-18% humidity, lower density breathing air, no beaches, nighttime winter temps dropping to minus 4 or 5 C.... jhb is not that great. And Cape town is in fact one of the most diverse cities in africa.
I'm white right and Capetown is so stuck up and clicky efen for me... Joburg is such a vibe. The attitudes in the Cape are as cold as the sea water. Snooty snobs Go to Natal anywhere along the coast. You can actually swim, and the people are so easy going and inviting
I have been studying Capetown as an alternative place to live other than the US where I was born and raised. Your videos really help and give great perspective.
It’s a strange quirk about Cape Town: it’s generally hostile to outsiders, including South Africans. If you’re not born there and went to those exclusive schools, you will struggle to establish yourself. And this is across all races.
😂💯 on point ...as someone born from the soil of SA, but in CT I'm an outsider even though I most probably look like the average Capetonian....😂 CT is another country, you either fit in or stand outside😂. too much racism from every colour. black on brown on white you name it. But the politics is ugly, crime is pitiful but the culture extraordinary. a love hate relationship
As I said in a comment in your last Cape Town video a few days ago, I've never met one single black person living in my Neigbourhood of Newlands in Cape Town, except for workers. I'm African Brit from the UK as well. I totally understand everything you have said about Cape Town and it is unfortunately true for even darker South Africans. So yes, I have seen most African Americans and other middle class Africans move to Joburg instead. However I will say this to everyone reading my comment. There were hardly any black brits in San Francisco & LA when I first moved there, so lots of people looked at me very funny including African Americans once I opened my mouth. However my exposure to Hollywood, Wall Street & Silicon Valley in the US is what helped my career and my tech startup today. I suppose it's easier for me because back in England, I grew up around 99% white english culture, so I kinda of relate to it a lot easily than if that was not the case. That all said, I would strongly encourage people of colour to not be deterred especially if you are of African decent as you and I are Nathan. You'd feel the same living in China or Japan, or Switzerland. Just learn as much as you can and see your minority as a gold mine as I am doing. Remember, other cultures want and need to learn from us too! It really does start through you and I and opens up opportunities for both black, white and every other racial group in between 💜 is the key symbol of our universe. If no one pioneers, there is no discovery and there is no growth for humankind 😎 Morpheus thinks 🌿Differently.
Cape Town over time has become more conservative ie racist whereas 30 years ago it was considered open minded JHB in contrast has become more integrated, so in my opinion even (young) white people consider Newlands or Constantia people bit cringe tho natural beauty of the location yes that you cannot take away
I'm very glad you called out the inequality in this video. People need to understand the situation. I sat down in Cape Town and spoke to some native South Africans who recounted their experiences and it was an instant turn-off and aligned with the vibe I picked up in Cape Town. It is a massive turn off.
I’m a beach lover.I lived in CT.(Tamboerskloof))nI had friends and good times in Joburg and loved the easy ride to Drakensberg and kwazulu natal but CT was it for me. I love the Karoo too. Made some great friends there to this day! Black female speaking.
I grew up in Jo'burg. Had the best time of my life living in Cape Town. I'm currently in a 1 bedroom bungalow in London 😂😂😂. Basically, your opposite. I definitely plan to retire in Cape Town. Thanks for showcasing the beauty and diversity of SA.
I am moving to waterfalls midrand with my family in a couple of months. Visited Cape Town some 8years ago and was blown away by the beauty. Before I left I wished I would settle there after retirement and today, we are getting ready to move! At least I can visit Cape Town as often as I want
Interesting, I’ll be on holiday in SA in November staying in Midrand but we’re planning on moving to SA in a couple of years…Hope the process has been kind to you 😅
Great video bro. I’m originally from “endz” too 😅 and thinking of relocating to Jozi in the next year and have really enjoyed/been encouraged by your videos. Think it’s really inspiring that you’ve taken this brave step at a relatively young age. Keep ‘em coming!
Spot on. Im from Joburg, and I've lived in Cape Town for 6 years. Joburg people are super friendly. Cape Town peole can be cold. I never felt welcomed, I felt like an outsider in my own country.
your own country is other people's country too. Africa is the second largest continent on earth, you probably won't like to hear is, but whites didn't need black people's permission to settle in africa.
@@jim-kp5hewell is time the natives South Africans wake up!!! They are indulging in dancing and drinking and eating whilst forgetting the important issues.,
Haha it’s crazy how our opinions differ. I’m from Cape Town, and no offence intended, but the folks from joburg that I’ve met always come across as a bit stuck up, whereas in my opinion the people from coastal towns are always so friendly and approachable. Notably PE…I’ve never been there, but every person I’ve ever met from PE has always left a mark on me as super friendly and just plain nice.

I have worked in every province in south africa and can agree with you that cape town is the best city. Its called the mother city because it takes nine months before anything happens😂
As a capetonian. I found joberg very clicky and unfriendly. I am a very friendly outgoing and bubly person. And I could not make friends until i got a job there. Stayed for 6 years on and off. Thus dude literally came to cape Town. The only time we have cold weather. June - August is our only cold times ever. The rest is hell. My favourite place in jozi was mellville. The only thing I miss from jozi is my allergies healed up due to different weather.
As a black South African, I hate CPT, the people aren’t friendly starting from the airport. I decline job offers in CPT don’t care how much they pay. I agree joburg is clicky and full of pretentious people, that’s why I prefer PTA. But CPT y’all can keep. But the only people that been friendly to me are coloured people. The others… yoh
Born in Midrand and I will definitely move back one day, left because of the crime as a child but now I live in Cape town. Cape town is definitely more beautiful but the cost of living is insane for locals
The problem is where you want to find lots of black people in Cape Town, you won't find too many black people the suburbs, if you go to the townships( Khayelitsha, Nyanga, Langa etc) you will find hordes of black people, yes black people are everywhere in Cape Town but they are mostly concentrated in the townships, sw for me it doesn't make sense to me when someone says CT is not diverse by merely looking the majority of white "tourists" in the suburbs , coloureds, blacks whites Indians etc are there.
Believe it or not, being born and raised in the United States and being only 12.1% of the entire population, reminds me of the ratio of non- black Africans (European)15.7% to the black Africans in SA. It speaks volumes!
Joburg is where its at, its like the NewYork of South Africa. CapeTown is the tourist place and very expensive for the locals Dont sleep on Durban though, the women here are 🔥
The difference between Cape Town and the other provinces is the presence of Coloured People. Cape Town is the only province where youll find not only the largest coloured demographic, but its also got the largest muslim community. These 2 factors shape the city in a way other provinces dont..I dont understand how when people compare JHB and Cape Town, they only talk about black and white people...eventhough Cape Town is the home of coloured people which is why the city is different to any other in South Africa
I always find the comments section interesting when it comes to this topic or JHb vs CT. My first thought is, how many of the ppl in the comments section that says JHb is far better are actually from CT. My guess, very very few. I’m from CT, lived in JHB for 17 years (Melrose Estate and Bryanston). Now, im back in CT. My point is I do have perspective on this ongoing debate having real credible living experience in both cities (not a short December vacation like most or the odd weekend breakaway or visit). The narrative that JHb is so much better is not as black and white as some make it out to be. A lot has got to do with one’s personality (introvert or extrovert), the area you choose to reside, your job, how deep your pockets are and unfortunately, the colour of your skin (that’s still a sad reality) . It also has a lot to do on how accepting one is of another race and at the same time, how one view themselves and their own selfworth ie do you still live with a victim mentality or not? Based on the above, different ppl will share different perspectives. As far as the weather goes…say what about the winter rain and cold weather but nobody complains when you have the perfect extended summer. When I first moved to JHb is said, no more than two years…stayed for 17 years coz I loved JHb so much and was eating it up for breakfast lunch and dinner. Now when I look back…I realise that thing ain’t as black and white as what the comment section so often portrays.
Cape Town is little Europe, cold weather, cold people. The subtle racism and blatant inequality makes it hard for me to be there for more than a week. I grew up in Joburg and I'm not used to the apartheid setup; submissiveness to whiteness by natives gets to me, it feels like they are still in the apartheid era!
Jeez man, if you think CPT views were that amazing, yes they are but your souls is going to melt the day you explore KZN, Mpumalanga, Lesotho and them.
cape town city landscape is iconic, in often tops lists with cities like rio de janeiro and sydney. I've seen many foreigners first reactions to being in cape town and many of them were in awe.
Yea you right..Joburg has been and always will be the heart of South Africa..infact ( i know it may sound so ambitious) of Africa! I live in Durban..but i am a joburger at heart..when ever im in the city..i feel like im in New York 🫢😁😁
Hey bro please make Google maps your friend.. Ok, look go to your Google map look for Resort, or Game reserve, or Lodge that is at least 300km away from JHB, book your stay and travel there by road and do not fly... One of the best way to learn to know the country..
cape town was the biggest city in southern africa at one point, then the richest gold veins in the history of gold mining were discovered in what is today johannesburg, making it the richest and most industrialized city in africa. So yes, joburg is the heart of SA in many ways.
Who are you meeting or where you going, because most people throughout SA are all welcome and respectful. Also, SA is known for its different climate regions, so you should be aware of when you visiting certain place
historically, The bantu expansion didn't make it to where modern day cape town is. Effectively europeans arrived by ship and established cape town before blacks africans arrived by foot. Which is not the case for Johannesburg.
I have lived in both places…..I loved Joeys…it has a buzz that is stimulating and exciting and the people are friendly. Cape Town is beautiful….the people in general are less friendly because they are so busy doing their own thing. Feeling more unequal in CT is weird because you get a lot of inequality in Johannesburg as well. The different dynamic in CT is the presence of coloured people….they are a wonderful addition to the area, but maybe make a difference to everything…just saying
So Wah really made you pack Your bags and move to SA? How has it affected your mental state both pos and neg, if given an ultimatum which would you rather pick? Not safety or anything because London is not safe either. I’m asking genuinely cuh I’m in an emotional claustrophob
I was born and grew up in and around lived in Jhb for 50 years...I think it is unique...but love Natal..in the UK now for past 5 years..Enjoy Jhb...Good 😅 to hear Jhb girls are good looking 😂
Don't lie, how can a place in the Highveld be colder! Cape Town is much colder. Check the weather forecast and historical data, you will see that Cape Town is generally colder than Joburg. That snow was an anomaly.
@@lifestylepretoria9181 do you have a brain?!? Don't you know that the higher the altitude the colder the climate?!? You must've failed geography at school. How can a coastal region be colder than the interior of the land. This is basic Geography knowledge. The coldest regions in South Africa are those near Lesotho which is the highest point of our country. That is why Lesotho snows +100 days of the year because Lesotho is at the highest elevation. City of Cape Town has never even seen snow ever. It's literally impossible for Cape Town to have snow fall for Geographic reasons.
@@lifestylepretoria9181 anyways you should be the one doing some research because Cape Town can never even dip below freezing temperatures. Joburg we experience negative temperatures every winter (-4°C) even lower. Cape Town hardly even goes below (+10°C) their winter nights don't come anywhere close to how cold it gets here. Joburg cold you feel in your bones. Cape Town just has rain in winter. That's what makes Cape Town winter horrible. If that rain was in Joburg it would be snow because Joburg is much much colder than The City of Cape Town.
Your CT is full of anti-black racists both white and colored ones, the inequality is more stark than anywhere in the country, there are gangs, the people are soulless and cold, the vibe is European, Cape Town doesn't have the South African culture as well. Beautiful city though, that's where it ends I'm afraid
As long as all you boys from Cape Town and Joburg know and accept that Durban has the hottest chicks. 👌 Anyways you chose well by settling in Joburg, I also recommend it for offshore bros. Perrsonally I'm a Durban chap but I do hold Joburg in high regard since Durban is a bit like Texas, it's very cultured and stand-offish. Nice place but my Zulu people can be a little bad with first impressions, especially with outsiders.
Townships (Ghetto) have the most stylish, beautiful, young and sexy black women in South Africa, as a South African gent i recommend you to go there maybe you might find your black South African wife there. For me if you want to find a traditional, respectful and faithful wife go to our villages in KZN, Mpumalanga and Limpopo
One can also find beautiful and stylish huns in suburbs too,they don't exist in townships only. Oh!not to mention the toxic township mentality that they have .
Nah okes be glazing jozi but in Cape Town there’s better city maintenance less loadshedding Ik it’s not relevant rn but still it’s overall a better vibe well yes I agree joburg is cheaper and more business etc is there but as someone who lives in Cape Town and has lived in joburg I think Cape Town is overall better and safer but night life and stuff like that is better up there in jozi but both GREAT cities
we get our winter rain in winter . i would NEVER again want to live in Gauteng mainly because of that dry climate . id take our cape of storms and fresh air in the cape than nose bleed dry air of Gauteng . i missed the cape town weather when I lived in pretoria .
@@crab-finger I loved living in Gauteng though! If it wasn't for the climate. However I did love the thunderstorms and the beautiful cloud formations and sunsets.
Really appreciate your perspective and insights. I spent 10-days in CT and about a week in Jo’burg ( I also spent 4 days in Durban and 5 days in Pretoria). I found both Jo’burg and CT problematic from a safety perspective. We were followed in both cities by some shady characters. I’m from Brooklyn so I wore my “don’t mess with me I’m from New York” face and walked with a small knife, but overall these things detracted from my SA experience. But thank you for the depth of information you shared. Really appreciated your perspective.
This is so true I am a South African living in Pretoria. Pretoria is super safe compared to Johannesburg. Would love to know how felt about the people reception compared to the these two cities.
A black model is more successful in Johannesburg than Cape Town ,Blacks do well in Johannesburg compared to Cape Town .The vibe is in Joburg
True Cape Town was my first choice ( I am a visual artist and have plans in SA) because I am European but after diving deeper coming from a multicultural place and mixed race I'd rather prefer JHB for the vibe, the creativity and the people. So yes it is easier to do it in JHB. By the way your country is amazing
@@nicolasb.henry294 You are totally welcomed here .

Danko. I am South African who has lived in the UK. Cape Town feels like an extention of Europe. The inequality kills me.😢

Yea you right..Joburg has been and always will be the heart of South Africa..infact ( i know it may sound so ambitious) of Africa! I live in Durban..but i am a joburger at heart..when ever im in the city..i feel like im in New York 🫢😁😁
in cape town ....we sta y in doors or do our own thing . lots of people don't do clubs and stuff here .. well me at least . i love my cape town .
Same lol I'm a homebody
A lot of us do hikes if we don't do clubs and bars
Hey bro please make Google maps your friend..
Ok, look go to your Google map look for Resort, or Game reserve, or Lodge that is at least 300km away from JHB, book your stay and travel there by road and do not fly...
One of the best way to learn to know the country..
This is exactly what I wanted to know and why I have never visited! Thanks 4 the info.
Thanks that was very informative. I am from Joburg. Your perspective is very enlightening.
Correct. Joburg is the heart of South Africa. It is the Economic Capital of South Africa.
cape town was the biggest city in southern africa at one point, then the richest gold veins in the history of gold mining were discovered in what is today johannesburg, making it the richest and most industrialized city in africa. So yes, joburg is the heart of SA in many ways.
Who are you meeting or where you going, because most people throughout SA are all welcome and respectful. Also, SA is known for its different climate regions, so you should be aware of when you visiting certain place
historically, The bantu expansion didn't make it to where modern day cape town is. Effectively europeans arrived by ship and established cape town before blacks africans arrived by foot. Which is not the case for Johannesburg.
You are telling the truth. Bro!!!!
Put some respect on Jozis name Joburg is infinitely better than Cape Town it only really has beach and landscapes
Chill! That's just a matter of opinion. It's not a fact
Nonsense boy.
That's your opinion, it's not a fact
I have lived in both places…..I loved Joeys…it has a buzz that is stimulating and exciting and the people are friendly. Cape Town is beautiful….the people in general are less friendly because they are so busy doing their own thing. Feeling more unequal in CT is weird because you get a lot of inequality in Johannesburg as well. The different dynamic in CT is the presence of coloured people….they are a wonderful addition to the area, but maybe make a difference to everything…just saying
While Joburg is cool, Cape Town has much older and more colourful architecture and has vineyards on its doorstep.
Love Joburg over Cape Town hands down
I feel like ur sleeping on other major city, you need to come to Durban my guy🏖️. That's the motherland of the Zulus🔥😤
The right decision to move to south Africa. I have a question for you , do you think buying a house is better than renting in South Africa. Why?
Durban 💯 for weman hands down
I beg to differ 🤣🤣i live in Durban..Joburg has the crown
@@SbuAfrica lutho khehla😏Zinhle izintombi eThekwini
cape town is known for its wintry winters, but the other 3 seasons are as good as anywhere in SA
Lol I depends I feel more at home in Cape Town
Think you must explore both cities beyond the CBD
True,joburg is the heart of south Africa
So Wah really made you pack
Your bags and move to SA? How has it affected your mental state both pos and neg, if given an ultimatum which would you rather pick? Not safety or anything because London is not safe either. I’m asking genuinely cuh I’m in an emotional claustrophob
Johannesburg is cold bro... Wait for the snow
I was born and grew up in and around lived in Jhb for 50 years...I think it is unique...but love Natal..in the UK now for past 5 years..Enjoy Jhb...Good 😅 to hear Jhb girls are good looking 😂
Cannot say the same about the men 😅😅
But Johannesburg is colder than Cape Town. So brace yourself for Johannesburg Winter. We even had snowfall in Joburg last year.
Don't lie, how can a place in the Highveld be colder! Cape Town is much colder. Check the weather forecast and historical data, you will see that Cape Town is generally colder than Joburg. That snow was an anomaly.
@@lifestylepretoria9181 do you have a brain?!? Don't you know that the higher the altitude the colder the climate?!? You must've failed geography at school. How can a coastal region be colder than the interior of the land. This is basic Geography knowledge.
The coldest regions in South Africa are those near Lesotho which is the highest point of our country. That is why Lesotho snows +100 days of the year because Lesotho is at the highest elevation.
City of Cape Town has never even seen snow ever. It's literally impossible for Cape Town to have snow fall for Geographic reasons.
@@lifestylepretoria9181 anyways you should be the one doing some research because Cape Town can never even dip below freezing temperatures.
Joburg we experience negative temperatures every winter (-4°C) even lower. Cape Town hardly even goes below (+10°C) their winter nights don't come anywhere close to how cold it gets here.
Joburg cold you feel in your bones. Cape Town just has rain in winter. That's what makes Cape Town winter horrible. If that rain was in Joburg it would be snow because Joburg is much much colder than The City of Cape Town.
Always in South Africa's business right?😂
@@shisuiuchiha480 you are dumb. The highveld has a hot climate while the coastal line had a cooler climate. Go back to school.
I feel you are also looking at one, very expensive, area of Cape Town….there are a lot of more modest areas in and around the city
Xhosa! Just drop the X and turn the h into K
Welcome to S.A, hope you hve a nice time
I love your accent😭😭
🤣🤣🤣i thought i was the only one
Their is also inaquality in Joburg. Culture is in Capetown , Joburg to many foreigners.Thank you.
Your CT is full of anti-black racists both white and colored ones, the inequality is more stark than anywhere in the country, there are gangs, the people are soulless and cold, the vibe is European, Cape Town doesn't have the South African culture as well. Beautiful city though, that's where it ends I'm afraid
lol dude said cpt weather is unpredictable😂😂 everyone is south africa knows jhb and durban are the unpredictable places weather wise.
You are in denial
It's because there is too many foreigners living in SA.. that's y electricity goes. They power is too weak to handle trillion of people😂😢
Joberg is the City of Gold aka Egoli. Our rand is based on it so thats where most of the money flows.
As long as all you boys from Cape Town and Joburg know and accept that Durban has the hottest chicks. 👌
Anyways you chose well by settling in Joburg, I also recommend it for offshore bros. Perrsonally I'm a Durban chap but I do hold Joburg in high regard since Durban is a bit like Texas, it's very cultured and stand-offish. Nice place but my Zulu people can be a little bad with first impressions, especially with outsiders.
Townships (Ghetto) have the most stylish, beautiful, young and sexy black women in South Africa, as a South African gent i recommend you to go there maybe you might find your black South African wife there. For me if you want to find a traditional, respectful and faithful wife go to our villages in KZN, Mpumalanga and Limpopo
One can also find beautiful and stylish huns in suburbs too,they don't exist in townships only. Oh!not to mention the toxic township mentality that they have .
I agree brother, was in Soweto and was blown away
Nah okes be glazing jozi but in Cape Town there’s better city maintenance less loadshedding Ik it’s not relevant rn but still it’s overall a better vibe well yes I agree joburg is cheaper and more business etc is there but as someone who lives in Cape Town and has lived in joburg I think Cape Town is overall better and safer but night life and stuff like that is better up there in jozi but both GREAT cities
The vibe is in Joburg vele.
Pretoria is the best❤
we get our winter rain in winter . i would NEVER again want to live in Gauteng mainly because of that dry climate . id take our cape of storms and fresh air in the cape than nose bleed dry air of Gauteng . i missed the cape town weather when I lived in pretoria .
yes, few people seem to notice like i do, the burning nostrils affect of living at high altitude and single digit humidity that Johannesburg has
@@crab-finger I loved living in Gauteng though! If it wasn't for the climate. However I did love the thunderstorms and the beautiful cloud formations and sunsets.
Welcome to SA Bro
Yoo is that British accent am in Birmingham Walsall side right now but my home is in Soweto
Really appreciate your perspective and insights. I spent 10-days in CT and about a week in Jo’burg ( I also spent 4 days in Durban and 5 days in Pretoria). I found both Jo’burg and CT problematic from a safety perspective. We were followed in both cities by some shady characters. I’m from Brooklyn so I wore my “don’t mess with me I’m from New York” face and walked with a small knife, but overall these things detracted from my SA experience. But thank you for the depth of information you shared. Really appreciated your perspective.
This is so true I am a South African living in Pretoria. Pretoria is super safe compared to Johannesburg. Would love to know how felt about the people reception compared to the these two cities.
Try Durban as well mate. 🎉🎉🎉😊
We joke about Cape Town being part of Europe
You should visit Durban , and be in the Northern side
You should come to Durban in Umhlanga tell us your experience
just a correction jhb and durban are the places with the unpredictable weather not cpt.
cpt weather is predictable and is harsh.
Go to Durban as well
Come to Durban for a week and have holiday of your life
Johannesburg is a fast paced life. Please be wise and more manly
It’s Joburg. Not Joberg. ❤
Great video
Get your Passport bros Drizzle Drizzle 😂😂😂✈️✈️✈️✈️
Tell you what Durban be going crazy
Why do they look at you funny. Whsts so different about you .
For to live as black person in Cape Town. You will need to be from white background family or you black white traditional
No hate bro but uthetha ngathi your voice is programmed
Haibo 😭
