Daveyton is a township in the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality of Gauteng in South Africa. It borders Etwatwa to the north-east, Springs to the south and Benoni to the south-west. The nearest town is Benoni, which is approximately 18 kilometres away. Daveyton was established in 1952, and named after William Albert Davey, the Mayor of Benoni from 1951 to 1953.[2] Daveyton achieved municipal status in 1983. [citation needed]

Numerous civic and youth organizations operated in the township since 1980, such as the East Rand Peoples Organisation, the Daveyton Students Congress Peoples Party, the Sinaba Party, Daveyton Peoples Party and the Daveyton Youth Council. The East Rand Peoples Party and Daveyton Students Congress were affiliates of the United Democratic Front. Chris Hani led his last March from Daveyton to Modderbee Prison.

The University of South Africa operates a regional campus in Daveyton offering all courses within all Unisa departments . Additionally, PRASA (Metrorail) provides train services to the township. These educational and transportation facilities contribute to the development and growth of the community in Daveyton.[]
