Region 7 was an administrative district in the city of Johannesburg, South Africa. It was also known as Alexandra and was one of Johannesburg's eastern boundary sections, situated in the north-east of the city. Regions 2 (Midrand), 3 (Sandton), and 8 (Central) were to its west, with Midrand also forming its northern boundary. It touched on Region 9 (Johannesburg South) in the south. Its position gives it good access to the City's eastern neighbours, such as Kempton Park, Germiston, and Boksburg. The region was abolished with a reorganistion of regions in 2006.^[1]
