Soweto (službeni naziv i kratica za South Western Townships, hrvatski kao: "Stambeno naselje Jugozapad") je naselje u Južnoafričkoj Republici osnovano 1963. godine spajanjem mnogih gradića na jugozapadu grada Johannesburga. Od 1983. do 2002. Soweto je bio zaseban grad, no od 2002. pripada Johannesburgu i od tada ime više nije u službenoj upotrebi.
