There are three main estates where African Americans and other foreigners live in Nairobi,they include:
- Kilimani
- Kileleshwa
- Westlands
These three estates have many clubs and entertainment joints where foreigners enjoy themselves. The estates are also crime free. It’s difficult to find that a house has been broken into or someone has been robbed in Kileleshwa.
The fact that already there are other foreigners in the estates makes it easy for others to join them
There are also good roads, good drainage systems and the apartments are beautiful.
Apart from the three estates, foreigners can also live in Karen,Gigiri,Runda and Parklands. Most UN staff live in Gigiri but the rent in this estate is out of reach for commong African Americans. In the three estates above,Kilimani,Kileleshwa and Westlands,rent prices range between $700 and $1200 per month.
