Dreaming of living elsewhere in Nigeria, here are some cities and towns you could try.
If you live in Lagos or Abuja, I don’t need a soothsayer to tell me that you are stressed, the high cost of living and transportation, hours in traffic and expensive food can cut deeply into your pocket and mental health.
1. Ibadan
The ancient city of Ibadan is one of the best places to live in Nigeria. According to Property Pro, it is one of the cheapest places too.
A plot of land can be gotten for N100,000 and rent is as cheap as N200,000 for a two-bedroom flat. Even hotel accommodations are as cheap as N3,000. But even besides that, food and transportation are very cheap in Ibadan. Plus, it is a fun and commercial city, so you won’t be bored.
2. Ikot Ekpene
If you are a foodie, then this town in Akwa Ibom is perfect for you. According to Property Pro, you can get hotel accommodation for as long as N1,000 and rent is equally as cheap. Close to the capital city of Uyo, Ikot is also a commercial area.
3. Onitsha
Most of the things we use and consume are made in Onitsha, which means most of what you buy would be gotten at the cost price. Onitsha boasts of commercialisation which means if you are a business owner, you have a large market for your goods and services. Transport and accommodation are also quite cheap in Onitsha.
