Region 10 includes most of Soweto. Soweto is a composite name, standing for South-Western Townships. So even this eastern region of it lies not to the south of central Johannesburg, but south of Florida. Its northern boundary is shared with Region 4 (Northcliff).

On its longest stretch, in the west, the boundary seamlessly joins Region 10 to Region 6 (Soweto). On the east it is separated from Region 9 (Johannesburg South) by the Western Bypass of the N1, and its southern neighbour is Region 11 (Ennerdale/Orange Farm).
