If you’re moving to Ibadan, you need to know that a lot of roads are under construction by the government as the population of the city is increasing daily. Do not walk at night, activities in the city close up before thick nightfall unfortunately because of average security in the city.

To live successfully in Ibadan, you must be ready to work very hard. Don’t live a life of extravagance and keep your savings in a safe place to avoid being trapped in emergency situations. Be friendly with people and avoid keeping bad company because bad company corrupts good manners. Conclusively, always put God first in everything you do.

Well… Ibadan is in Nigeria. It is the largest city in Nigeria. It’s quite noisy if you ask me. It’s known for its large range of brown rusted roof. Surrounded by several cities, it’s quite cool. It’s most fun at night though quite dangerous. It doesn’t have a much neat places as Lagos.

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.

Ibadan is a great ancient city and one on the largest cities in Sub-Saharan Africa. you will have access to accommodation at a very cheap price and the cost of eating is also relatively low. If you are a fun lover, you’ll be in the right place as almost daily is fun especially after your working hours. You don’t have to worry about security as people here are accommodating, fun to be with, and peace-lovers.

Anyone who wants to move to the city should be able to relate well with others. He/she must be very hardworking. Waking up very early so as to get to the place of work is very important. The reason is that traffic jam in the city is terribly serious. Finally, he should be security conscious.

residing in Ibadan is not difficult at all. It involves conscious planning and deliberation. Such person has to consider some minor laws that must be adhered to. Also, the issue of traffic is one that must be highly considered. Another factor to consider is the roughness, chaos and noise that often comes from people going about their day to day activities. It gets really frustrating at times. Above all, Ibadan is a relatively great place.

Ibadan is highly populated, anyone relocating there should consider the negative effect of an overpopulated city which includes traffic congestion and high cost of living as well. Aside from that there are high records of criminal cases making the lives of the citizens within to be in danger.

Temiloluwa, 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.

Feranmi, says: 2020

Ibadan is a very populated place. If you’re someone who likes to stay in quiet places then it is advisable that you actually don’t move from where you are but if you really have no choice at all, then you need to make up your mind to adjust to the hustle-bustle of the urban world, the crime rate is also high I must say.
