Django is a framework, Wordpress is a CMS. Django aims to be able to build pretty much any web application, Wordpress aims to make it easy to add and display content.

I'd use Wordpress when building simple websites that serve as landing pages or blogs. If the main use for the site is showing some basic static info that never changes or the owner coming in, writing a few articles and clicking save, then Wordpress might be a good fit.

I'd use Django when building more complex websites and web applications where a CMS just doesn't fit due to the complexity of the logic, functionality or data. For example you might build an inventory management system with Django since it can have complex business logic and the data doesn't really fit a blog format. You might build an online store with Django, since you need to model and handle logic for products, inventory, payments, customers and such.
