Ibadan is the intellectual capital of Nigeria, home to the first public and private universities in Nigeria. It is usually called the ‘brown roof city’ because it has many ancient buildings whose zinc roofing sheets have rusted over the years. Ibadan is peaceful, the pace here is slower than many of the surrounding cities. Traffic is not usually an issue. Homes are affordable, you can rent a lovely 2 or 3 bedroom apartment for about a third of what you will pay for the same in neighbouring Lagos. You will certain enjoy living in Ibadan as there are many tourists sites and recreation spots here.

Ibadan is pretty peaceful and slow-paced; everybody behaves as if there’s nowhere important to be. moving here, you should expect, little traffic, nice people and good food. Although, property pricing differs from one area to another, property is pretty inexpensive, at least compared to Nigeria’s bigger cities like Lagos or Abuja.

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 very large city in the heart of southwestern Nigeria. If you’re thinking of making it a home, you can survive on a little income due to the low cost of housing and feeding. Nevertheless, you should be prepared to tighten your security because of the obvious high crime rate, especially in recent times.

Someone moving to Ibadan must know that the standard of living is quite low and hence affordable. It is calm and a good place to settle down. There are not so much jobs around but there is always something you can do to get by each day. If you want to enjoy staying in residence, be financially comfortable first.

Temidayo, says: 2020

Ibadan is one of the largest cities in Africa, which is occupied with may beautiful houses and brown roofed homes. It has a large number of occupants including an international airport. The beautiful city comprises of good and bad people but the law enforcement agencies ensures safety for all.
