Damp and humidity in Bellville
Bellville lies in the northern suburbs, a little drier and warmer than the Atlantic side but still soaked by Cape winters, with cold fronts bringing rain from May to August. Houses in Parow, Goodwood and Bellville South are often older brick homes and cottages with thin ceilings and little insulation, and washing hung indoors fills the air with water. Durbanville and the hills around it add wine farm cellars, and Kuils River and Brackenfell have newer estates with cold bedrooms and condensation on aluminium windows. Stikland and the Bellville industrial area hold factories and warehouses, and the area has a large student and rental market.
