This is one of the biggest cities in our country Kenya. Actually it is the capital city. Nairobi is the city. It turns out to be extremely busy during the day but quite silent at night. You can only find the police scouting the roads ensuring nothing sinister taking place. The estates are expensive but top to perfection due to the planted trees providing fresh air and a serene environment. The best place to be is Nairobi.

It is a beautiful city and the capital of the country. The people in the city are really friendly and look out for each other. The security is tight because there are police officers and the crime rates are not very high. The population is quite high.

Sharon, says: 2020

Employment is abundant in my city and none have a problem acquiring it. Apart from housing which is somehow a challenging issue due to the increased population, security is always available with adequate number of police officers guarding one’s property and life.

Sundus, says: 2020

A beautiful city with very nice and friendly people. The city is very secure with many police stations within it. The city has many shopping malls distributed in every corner of it. There are numerous restaurants and cafeterias. The city is clean and and and has a lot of vegetation in it.

Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, remains densely populated. The residents of this city have to contend with traffic jam that remains a major impediment to movement of people. Despite traffic policemen being deployed during rush hour, commuters remain stranded in long hours, due to the congested nature of the roads.

Regina, says: 2020

It is full of great scenarios like a Nairobi gamepark which makes it a unique city in the world. Traffic is always contained with state of the art rentals available. Security is a guarantee as police are always on patrols making sure everyone is safe. There are friendly people who like relating with strangers.

Someone moving to Nairobi should know residents of our city are very hospitable. They should also know that our city is very safe. Commodities in the stores around the city are very affordable and majorly fresh from the garden. Nonetheless, it is also important that they know of the corrupt police department in our city.

Vivien, says: 2020

Transport, traffic is usually messy at certain hours in a day. Housing, one should make sure to find an apartment that is convenient in consideration to movement to and from work and security, one should make sure that they have all the information on where to go or who to call incase of a security issue, either the police or a private security company.

The person must follow the city rules like not spitting or smoking publicly, no use of abusive language and must also pay their bills on time. An individual should also be able to speak English fluently and agree to follow the police guidelines. They should be friendly and be kind to the people around.

Someone moving to Nairobi needs to know insecurity, especially at night, is something that they are going to grapple with. Every day, people are mugged and the police have not yet adequately addressed this vice. You need to walk in groups of at least five and carry with you some protective weapon which you could use were the ruffians to attack you.

Nairobi is one the highly populated areas in the country though despite the high population in the region it is well secured and protected by both the law enforcement team and residents themselves. The city has also provided for its citizens a point or a sense of enjoyment in that the area is endorsed with wild animals for domestic tourists.

Christoph, says: 2020

Nairobi is the capital of Kenya. It is the business hub for all east African countries. Nairobi is also a tourist destination whereby it has a national museum and an animal orphanage. Security-wise the city is well guarded and patrolled by police day and night to maintain law and order.
