Divide in facilities
Meredale is a developed area, and has good infrastructure and good transport systems. There is a clinic, a mall, a primary school and a correctional services institution. And it also has a park for outdoor recreation.
Socio-Economic Divide
There is access to the internet and free Wi-Fi that can be used for free at the mall (South Gate Mall) and people use it for the internet and social media. Meredale already has fibre installed, but not everyone in Meredale has fibre in their homes, they mostly use the internet when they at the mall cause its free for everyone to use. Meredale has few internet cafes available and most that reside in Meredale are the older generation so the use of the internet is used by the youth who go to the mall.
Digital Divide in Content
Information is very difficult to access despite fibre being installed in the area. Internet access in the area isn’t updated and people who try getting information on the area or accessing the internet will have problems.
