Mohlakeng is a township west of Johannesburg in Gauteng, South Africa.
The township was established in 1954. The new location of Mohlakeng was established after African residents of the then old Randfontein township of Madubulaville was abolished by the apartheid regime to make way for the industrial site closer to Randfontein town.
Mohlakeng is where the large part of the Randfontein population is situated. It lies 7 kilometres south of Randfontein, and around 38 kilometres west of Johannesburg. Mohlakeng has now grown about 15% in size in 2012 as compared to 2002.[citation needed] The former Executive Mayor[who?] of the West Rand District Municipality hails from Mohlakeng.
The community is served with Umphakathi mall, a police station, Mohlakeng Medical Centre, a refurbished Ramosa Hall, a soccer stadium and a recreation centre.[citation needed] Mohlakeng is surrounded by Soweto in the east, Randfontein in the north and Westonaria in the south.
