Boskruin
Boskruin is a residential suburb, close to Bromhof & Randpark Ridge and located with reach of Randburg. Boskruin, with the Boschkop Nature Reserve,[1] is renowned for its scenic landscapes, tranquil atmosphere, and popular community centre.[2] Estate agents compare the suburb to Houghton,[3] with its picturesque setting, with tree-lined streets and well-maintained properties.
While Boskruin is generally regarded as a secure and tranquil suburb, it is not immune to crime.[4] Local newspaper reports include robberies in driveways and burglaries, which sometimes escalated into home invasions. Police are also overstretched,[5] and so the neighbourhood has become boomed and enclosed, as residents seek to protect themselves from crime.
