About
The distribution of white South Africans is fairly evenly spread. According to the 2022 South African census, they comprise 7.3% of the total population and number 4,504,252. They are found in large numbers in practically every province in South Africa but always as a minority. They are high in concentration in large cities. Historically, in the pre-1994 provinces, the Transvaal and Orange Free State were predominantly Afrikaans-speaking, Natal was mostly English-speaking and the Cape Province was largely mixed.
