Mogoditshane is a rapidly growing urban settlement located just 10 kilometers northwest of Gaborone, the capital of Botswana. Nestled in the Kweneng District, it lies at the heart of Botswana’s economic and urban expansion. With an elevation of approximately 1,022 meters, Mogoditshane enjoys a semi-arid climate (BSh) and a prime geographical advantage due to its proximity to the capital city.
According to census data, Mogoditshane’s population has quadrupled over the past two decades. The 2011 census recorded 57,637 residents, and recent estimates place the population close to 60,000. This growth reflects broader urbanization trends across Botswana.
