While many may opt to live in the most sophisticated hoods in Nairobi even with low incomes, Kibera offers the cheapest and the easiest life free from worry in the city.
It is only in Kibera where life can be so happy and easy as long as you have a sustainable income enough to settle the small rent costs, food and maybe commuter expenses should it happen that you work a distance away from home.
Life is hard in the city especially when you choose to live in hoods that do not match your income. As a matter of fact, many people struggling with life in Nairobi are people who choose expensive housing, leave alone food.
The best thing you can do in Nairobi as a newbie or a hustler is choosing a sustainable housing that won't fill your head with questions on how you will talk to the landlord about the inability to pay rent in time.
Turning to Kibera, it offers the best housing and the best foods. Rental costs in Kibera can be as low as 700 or even 500 per month. For food stuff, 'mama mbogas' are everywhere and so you don't need to live on expensive meals or depend on restaurant meals.
One can hardly live with hunger in this slum because as you walk along the streets, chapattis and boiled beans are everywhere. All you do is buy and go fry the beans at home and eat your special meal and life goes on.
Sukuma wiki worth 15 shillings is enough to pass a night as you wait for the next day. Life doesn't have to be expensive when your earnings are still too low. Live life according to your pockets.
As a hustler in Nairobi, Kibera is the best hub to live in. The only worry is security which depends upon you. Observe time and choose more secure places. Avoid spots prone to theft.
