Kenya’s capital city Nairobi was once the centre of attraction for real estate developers and aspiring home owners. Everyone wanted to own a home within Nairobi. As the migration from rural towns picked up, compounded by a rising city population, land prices and cost of mortgages skyrocketed. Today, the city is bursting at the seams thanks to a rapidly swelling population.
It is now the most populous county in Kenya with a population of 4,397,073 people as at the 2019 census data. The population has grown 40 per cent in the last 10 years from 3,138,369 in 2009. Nairobi’s landmass is 703.9 square kilometres, meaning about 6,247 people occupy a square kilometre. This congestion has seen city residents leaving to settle away from the hustle and bustle of the metropolis.
