The problem is compounded by uneven and dualistic development arising from the apartheid era as well as geographical variations in respect to resource availability. This has resulted in a wide variety of development patterns and resultant settlement types ranging from well-developed neighbourhoods usually found within city limits to under-developed settlements in deep rural areas. Development patterns impact on the provision of social services as geographical dispersion and low density sprawl are major factors influencing the efficiency of service delivery. With the above in mind, it is of the utmost importance that a critical evaluation of settlement structure and patterns is undertaken to directly inform the manner in which social services are delivered in different settlement types.enSouth African settlementsFacility allocationService deliverySettlement catchment approachConference PresentationSogoni, Z., & Ngidi, M.
