This is a list of suburbs in the City of Cape Town metropolitan municipality, in South Africa. The municipality includes the city of Cape Town, as well as its surrounding suburbs and exurbs.
Each section on this page separates a specific region of Cape Town, in alphabetical order. Within each region, there is a table, with its respective suburbs listed in alphabetical order.
The eight regions of the City of Cape Town are:
The Atlantic Seaboard Blouberg The Cape Flats The City Bowl Helderberg The Northern Suburbs The Southern Suburbs The Southern Peninsula
In the tables, each suburb is followed by its postal code (street code). This code is used for street deliveries. The second, where applicable, refers to PO boxes. If a suburb's PO box code is the same as its postal code, or if it doesn't have a PO box code, the cell is blank.
Some suburbs in Cape Town are also classified as Main Places, and as such, certain suburbs may form part of those areas in the tables below.
In South Africa, the term "suburb" does not necessarily mean "residential area on the edge of a city". Rather, it is used synonymously with neighborhood, to refer to the smallest geographical subdivision of a city.
