The Northern Suburbs is a major urban and rural region located in the City of Cape Town Metropolitan Municipality in the Western Cape province of South Africa. It is the urban north-eastern part of the Greater Cape Town metropolitan area (Cape Metropole) that is functionally merged with Cape Town. The northern suburbs of Cape Town are experiencing human trafficking, as of October 2023 they have encountered 74 human trafficking victims, 42 labour trafficking victims, 9 victims of unspecified trafficking activities, 23 sex trafficking victims, and an estimated overall sum of 250 000 victims in South Africa. Geography The region extends from Goodwood in the west to Kraaifontein, Brackenfell and Kuilsrivier in the east and north up to incorporate the rural village of Philadelphia. The principal town is Bellville to the south of the Tygerberg Hills, which as of 2011 has a population of 112,507. Along with Bellville, the population density of the Northern Suburbs is concentrated along the N1 corridor including the towns of Goodwood (pop. 50,285), Parow (pop. 119,462), Brackenfell (44,842) and Kraaifontein (154,615). Bordering Bellville to the north among the Tygerberg Hills is the town of Durbanville (pop. 54,286) and along the R300 corridor bordering Bellville and Brackenfell is the town of Kuilsrivier (pop. 46,685). Though separate, these aforementioned towns have virtually become one due to development and urban sprawl and as a result have become known as the northern suburbs of Cape Town. The Northern Suburbs’ borders encompass the vibrant townships of Bloekombos, Wallacedene and Scottsdene in Kraaifontein and the smaller township of Fisantekraal (pop. 12,369) just outside Durbanville. Towards the extreme north of the Northern Suburbs about 20 kilometres (12.4 mi) from Durbanville are the rural settlements of Klipheuwel (pop. 2,294) and Philadelphia (pop. 570) which are the most isolated and least integrated areas within the Greater Cape Town metropolitan area. Transportation Roads The Northern Suburbs mainly lies along the N1 freeway which traverses through Goodwood, Parow, Bellville, Brackenfell and Kraaifontein, routing traffic north-east from Cape Town to Paarl and Worcester. The R300 freeway (Kuils River Freeway) connects the northern suburbs that lie further east including Bellville, Brackenfell and Kuilsrivier heading southwards to Mitchells Plain on the Cape Flats. The N7 freeway lies to the far west of the northern suburbs linking Goodwood with Malmesbury to the north. Rail The Metrorail Western Cape commuter rail system connects Cape Town to the northern suburbs of Goodwood, Parow, Bellville, Brackenfell and Kraaifontein via the Northern Line and also connects Strand and Somerset West in the Helderberg region to the northern suburbs of Kuilsrivier and Bellville via the Strand Line.

Carex oronensis is a species of sedge known by the common name Orono sedge. It is endemic to Maine in the United States, where it occurs mainly in the Penobscot River Valley. It is the only plant that is endemic to the state of Maine. The type locality is Orono. The Orono sedge produces clumps of stems up to one meter tall. There are three to four leaf blades per stem. Each measures 18 to 23 centimeters long. The copper-colored inflorescence is a few centimeters long and contains several spikes of flowers. Flowering occurs in June and July. This plant grows in wetlands and in less wet areas. It is often found in disturbed areas, such as hay fields. Plants in sunny, open areas grow larger than those growing in shade. Associated plants include several species of Carex, such as C. scoparia, C. tenera, and C. tincta, plus Rumex acetosella, Leucanthemum vulgare, Ranunculus acris, Anaphalis margaritacea, Achillea millefolium, Phleum pratense, Vicia cracca, Juncus spp., Luzula spp., Panicum spp., Solidago spp., Rubus idaeus, and Spiraea alba. This plant is known from six counties in Maine (Aroostook, Hancock, Penobscot, Piscataquis, Somerset, and Waldo), and there are about 58 populations known. The populations are mostly small; only a few populations have more than 60 individuals. Threats to the species include loss of habitat. Most of the populations are on privately owned land.

Sam Vanni (till 1941 Samuel Besprosvanni; 6 July 1908 – 20 October 1992) was a Finnish painter. He is considered to be the pioneer of abstract art in Finland. Samuel Besprosvanni was born in Vyborg. His parents were fur trader Aron Besprosvanni and Rakel Stoler. Besprosvanni was multi-lingual since his early childhood. Of Jewish origin, his home language was Yiddish, but he went to a Swedish school and most of his friends were speaking Finnish. The Besprosvanni family moved to Helsinki in 1921 and in 1927 Samuel started studies in the Academy of Fine Arts. Later he studied in the Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence and was a private student of the sculptor Wäinö Aaltonen. In 1931 his works were displayed in an annual Finnish Art Society exhibition. From 1938 to 1939 Vanni lived in London and Paris, where he attended the Académie Julian and Académie de la Grande Chaumière. In the 1940s Vanni started to move towards more abstract art. He was especially influenced by French artists like Henri Matisse and Pierre Bonnard. Sam Vanni was an active painter until his death in 1992. He was awarded by the Pro Finlandia and invited in the Academy of Finland in 1964.
