Vosloorus is a large township situated south of Boksburg and just east of Katlehong in Ekurhuleni, just 30 kilometres south-east of Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa.
It was established in 1963 when Black Africans were removed from Stirtonville[2] because it was considered by the government too close to a white town.
Stirtonville, renamed Reiger Park, has since become home to Boksburg's coloured community.
A local authority was established in 1983 when Vosloorus was given full municipal status.
