Ibadan is a quiet, sprawling city with low living costs. The people are friendly to visitors and tourists. There are three universities asking moderately affordable fees. Ibadan is surrounded by towns with farm produce for sale. Tropical fruits and vegetables are sold by smiling women who are generous. All faiths are accepted.

Ibadan is currently undergoing a wave of development led by the construction of several malls, all of which hints at the construction of several more facilities befitting a growing metropolis in its expansion phase, as foreign investors shift their attention towards Ibadan undiscovered fast growing economy. Therefore, any newcomer would have a surreal experience as they participate in being part of the city growth into a true metropolis.

Ibadan, the city characterized by brown roofs, is an ancient Nigerian city. The cost of living in Ibadan is relatively cheaper when compared to living in Lagos. It is home to the University of Ibadan and Bodija market: the largest market in Nigeria. I love Ibadan city because it has less hustle and bustle compared to Lagos.

Ibadan is a very populous city with about three different languages spoken among this population. One would think that with the large population our electricity will be great but no, it isn’t and the best bet is to purchase a generator. Also, the people are very friendly maybe too friendly so if a person begins to cozy up to you just take it in stride.

Ibadan, my city, is the largest in West Africa and known for its traditional way of life so moving there warrants the immigrant (s) to know his or her way around. Native, local foods are very common. There are a few shopping malls despite the large area size of the city.

The housing system is affordable, it has a number of tourist attractions, some of which include: The Palms Mall, which is the biggest in West Africa, Agodi Gardens, Ventura, Amala Skye among many others. Transport is cheap and it is easy to find your way around in the city. The city also has some of the best schools around, schools such as Concord and American School of Nigeria equip your child with the best skills they can get from a Nigerian school.

Ibadan is a great ancient city and one on the largest cities in Sub-Saharan Africa. you will have access to accommodation at a very cheap price and the cost of eating is also relatively low. If you are a fun lover, you’ll be in the right place as almost daily is fun especially after your working hours. You don’t have to worry about security as people here are accommodating, fun to be with, and peace-lovers.
