Where the women were found
Each circle is a discovery site. The size of the faint ring is how uncertain the location is, most reports say only "near the R21" or "in Rhodesfield", so treat pins as neighbourhood-level, not exact. The dashed amber zone is a hotspot: an area with more than one discovery. The blue line is the R21 highway. Click a pin for details.
Hotspots, where to be careful
A hotspot is simply an area where more than one body has been found. It is a reason to be careful there, not a statement about who lives there.
Rhodesfield / Kempton Park: 4 discoveries
Discoveries #1, #2, #3, #4. Zone radius about 4.7 km. SAPS advice for this area since 12 September: do not walk or run alone, avoid isolated stretches and open veld, exercise in groups and in daylight.
Olifantsfontein / Clayville: 2 discoveries
Discoveries #5, #7. Zone radius about 4.9 km. SAPS advice for this area since 12 September: do not walk or run alone, avoid isolated stretches and open veld, exercise in groups and in daylight.
Single discoveries outside the hotspot
- KwaThema: 1 discovery (#6)
Reported hazards, dark stretches, uncut veld, no signal

Centre of all sites: -26.102, 28.250 (average distance from centre 9.9 km). That is a description of the pins, not a prediction about anything, see why there is no offender heat-map.
