Nairobi Eastland - this is where Nairobi lower middle class live in. Has more high or low rises than any Africa city outside Cairo in my view https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sDvFOmus8o 1 Like |

You just compared Nairobi to Accra - that show you're desperate insane man. Johannesburg GDP is not equal to Kenya. Gauteng GDP at best was 130B - or so And Joburg is about half of that - 50-70B Nairobi GDP is about that - 45-50B - about 1/3-1/2 Kenya's GDP. Next excuse. Your dead city is not growing. Nairobi is growing very very fast. When you're building one house - Nairobi is building almost 20. jl115: 4 Likes |

The usual cries. Nairobi city as of 1960 is 696 km². That is old Nairobi boundaries defined in 1963- with about 20% occuppied by National animal park and forests. The rest is built up. Slums occupy 2% of the land mass - 5% of the built up area. Nairobi Metro - is huge. It extends about 40-60kms radius from Nairobi center. That is built up area - that is 10,000Kms square plus. If you include the non-built up - it's 32K. That is very huge. And now has close to 10Million people. That is the size of Gauteng (10m people - 18K sq kms). 68816419: 4 Likes 1 Share |

jl115: We already discussed this previously, Johannesburg's gdp ppp isn't useful a measure when compared to the nominal gdp of Nairobi. Guateng's gdp is realistically at or around 90 to 150, billion dollars. Admittedly within range of Kenya's GDP. Nairobi & Johannesburg unlike your previous assertions are within the same range on paper, there is no need for Nairobi to catch up. Guateng>> Johannesburg or Nairobi, Johannesburg= Nairobi, get it? When it comes to infrastructure they're quite similar already. you had the total paved roads of Johannesburg at >9000km & according to this account bellow Nairobi is already at >7000 km of paved roads, there is a functional metro rail system that's currently getting upgraded in nairobi while you have your guatrain, joburg guys have the city deep dry port while Nairobi has a dry port, Brt system is on course in nairobi while it's present in joburg, add other amenities that are only accessible to one, Nairobi has a National Park, Nairobi is the most dynamic city in Africa. The only way you're having a debate is on which is better, & we'll rationally get to Joburg wealth> Nairobi wealth Joburg gdp nominal= or slightly> Nairobi metro gdp nominal Joburg gdp per capita nominal> Nairobi MgdpPc Nairobi metro dry port complex> city deep guatrain> Nairobi metrorail Joburg roads> Nairobi roads Joburg retail space = or slightly > Nairobi retail space Joburg real-estate= or slightly > Nairobi estate Nairobi recreational space> joburg recreational space Education Joburg= or slightly> Nairobi Security Nairobi> Joburg Dynamic Nairobi> Joburg Healthcare Nairobi> Joburg Health facilities Joburg> Nairobi QOL Joburg> Nairobi Skyline Nairobi> Joburg imo Skyscraper/high-rise Joburg> Nairobi Nightlife Joburg= or slightly > Nairobi They're not that distant from each other, just one might seem a lil more impressive for now. 5 Likes 1 Share

The difference is now minimal. You just need to look at videos. Picture test. Nairobi is growing very fast. High rises - Nairobi I believe will overtake Joburg very very soon if it hasn't already. Roads. By next year - with completion of Nairobi Expresseway - Valley Road/Upperhill expansion with interchanges - Western By-Pass - James Gichuru-Rironi - the expansion of Eastern and Northern by-passes- the road infrastructure will be a few notches below Joburg. From there - I can only think about expanding very few roads - Kiambu, Limuru, Kamiti,Kangundo, maybe ABC - through Lavington. Nairobi would be there in roads. BRT - we are getting about 60Km of BRT next year Light rail - we have decent old MGR line that is being modernized - if we get more DMUs - we would be about there. Nairobi Railway City - and in the future - a proper light rail - will nail it. Nairobi is fixing the water problem - at least huge part - with completion of Nairobi North Collector project. Sewage still is a problem. Telecommunication - broadband - and likes - Nairobi has already overtaken Joburg. Also if we get housing fixed - with social housing to replace slums and old estates - then Nairobi will be untouchable in Sub-Saharan Africa - South Africans will be come to see a modern city As for Nairobi metro - there is huge infrastructure deficit there - it will be another 10-15yrs before Nairobi metro compete with Gauteng. Kenyans have tried their best to build real estate - but paved roads are lacking, sewage system absent, water mostly boreholes, and there is no railway and mass transport - we need to invest heavily in Nairobi Metro - because those county gov cannot prioritize Nairobi metro over rural areas of the counties.
