I passed by Kakamega while still young living nearby in Kisumu ,it seemed to me a huge town then ,well now its grown to be a major town am sure as I look back in comparison. Would wish to visit .
Bro you should try adocumentary kinda of content about Kenya and worldwide, your voice is very calming and knowledgeable at the same time, you speak very good English my brother 👍
Okay guys I'm from Kabarnet but I'm currently studying at Kisii University and actually Kisii town is massive and what people don't know is that kisii town is like a mini metropolis comprising of small residential areas filled with apartments,,,,,, I've also realised the town is a financial and commercial hub for South Nyanza and South Rift regions,,,,,,,, another thing is that Kericho Town is quarter the size of kisii Town no joke,,,,,,,,But Kisii Town has a problem which is poor planning and there's always huge traffic during rush hours every day except Sundays..
I am privileged to have lived in eldoret, kericho, homabay,kisumu, siaya and Nairobi. Kericho is beautiful but extremely cold and it's true that it rains almost daily. Kericho is one of the most beautiful places in Kenya. Eldoret is beautiful, affordable foodwise, has a great business enviroment, but needs organization and infrustructural expansion to cope with the increased population ,it also has a very good climate.

Thanks Afrikan Traveller for keeping your word and populating the list of major Kenyan towns. Just a note, Eldoret is also an important and rapidly growing healthcare centre in Kenya due to its humorous good hospitals. In your next list you could also take a look at Kapsabet, a nice growing town
Thika my town has great potential for expansion and development ,for it's metropolitan area c.b.d. just adjacent to where the town starts ,in Gatitu ,heading towards the other major towns of Juja and Ruiru ,close by. Development of Tatu city in Ruiru ,is ongoing, implying Thika might eventually link up, in development with these towns' infrastructures, to form a conglomerate major city ,just adjacent to Nairobi capital city ,with green landscape ,leisure and relaxation ,mix of urban and rural .
Ah .....we mjamaa.....si ukuwe mwalimu tu....your narration in this video is a typical teaching aid....BRAVO..!! Bravo...!!. However I would like the next video to include a map.... animation on map to show axactly the location aspecially from Nairobi
@@AfrikanTraveller brother you are a true teacher.....coz I see you do a research before presentation.....😂😂😂😂😂, Where is our Josh Mouo......?? He can help you on issues of maps......todays video is really fantastic and edu-entaint.....👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏.....😁😁😁😁😁
I agree with your ratings. I have learned a lot here. Never knew Kisii and Meru were that big. I fell in love with Kericho on the very first sight. Very clean and organized. If we purpose to plan our cities, we can be just like any other cities in the western world. Give it approx 10yrs with serious planning. I always feel like Nakuru and Eldoret can compete but Eldoret might have more potential due to the airport. That was good presentation brother.
Wozaaaa,vivaaa, awesome,🕺🕺, Nakuru is my most favorite City in Kenya ,I love it more than any other places in Kenya, Though I'm in MOMBASA currently, I'm going back to Nakuru soon.Kakamega made it to the list finally, I'm flattered big bro
Awesome video... Eldoret is ripe for a city considering the 250,000 population threshold required... With few infrastructure improvement, it will soon be a city... The other 9 will require massive investment to come close to a city. While they can achieve 250,000 threshold this decade, infrastructure to sustain a city status will require more time.. We hope devolution will accelerate the infrastructure development.... Also, Garissa town is quite underrated
This is well balance....with the advent of devolution in Kenya, urban competition will streamline the organisation of proper urban settlements in Kenya..Thank you for the mention of Green Carpet City- Kericho
Kisii will be like a small Lagos or Maybe Kampala,it is growing rapidly but so congested and poor planning,,,but will keep having crazy money circulation no matter what,,,Kisii town is peaceful especially during times of political tension, investors never have to worry during elections.
One of the most interesting observations l have come to acknowledge I that there are small towns in Kenya that are far better than capital cities in some African countries! True.
Excellent Work. Hopefully your work helps the country and counties do better longterm land and physical planning. The drone shots reveal haphazard build up developments etc.. Very Good Work. Rgds.
Kisii town will burst one day. The city is in a crisis due to overwhelming rate of development. Watch out for kisii town, watch out for kisii people. The Cash flow in kisii town is so huge
The towns looking more beautiful in aerial view. I couldn't recognize my nyeri town. Kwa ground vitu ni different. Privileged to have visited all the towns apart from malindi.
This is a great 👍documentary of big towns to be considered for city status. You have to note that with the Amendment of Urban Areas and Cities Act has now classified all County Headquarters as Municipalities. So Kericho, Meru, Kakamega, etc are Municipalities. But also additional ones are Municipalities such as Naivasha, Thika etc are also Municipalities whic is added unit layer of service delivery for the County residents. My only omission here is Narok and Bungoma towns.
This video deserve a like, very informative and eye opening, even though Nakuru was not mentioned I can agree with have other cities that needs the Senate attention. Kericho stood out for me, and I will visit before the end of the year.
@@AfrikanTraveller There are a number Great Hotel in Kericho like Tea Hotel, Midwest Hotel etc, Kenya Highland University, University of Kabianga, Kericho TTC among many
Greetings Afrikan Traveller, the 10 major towns there are out of this universe and I see that your subscriber numbers have increased significantly and as such I continue to be so proud of your drive and motivation as Kenyan Vlogger. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing. Kenya is on the move in Infrastructure and Architecture .
Kisii has influenced growth of Kisumu city unlike Thika getting influenced by Nairobi. Kisii also has Kisii University and other institutions branches. In 20 years, Kisii will be the biggest city in the lake regions. Not even Kampala can match this people. #bantuexpansion ongoing.
Coming from two beautiful towns,Kisii and kericho,,am proud,,I come from kisii originally but didn't know how massive its growing,,,very impressive!!Good work researcher!
Kakamega is much behind of Meru,Nyeri and Malindi don’t even try to compare kakamega with the three because they’re much ahead ( visit all before making a list) kericho will be number 25 because even Nyamira and Narok are big and develop than kericho even Migori is developed than kericho
In terms of Cool weather, for those who hate sun burn, Kericho is the place to be, otherwise, Eldoret, Kamega, Kericho, Kisii and Malindi are just beautiful Towns and next cities in Kenya👌👌
The African traveller you have the greatest and best inspiring content ideal for everyone across board especially travelling enthusiasts. Keep it up man and happy new year sir
The biggest challenge is the poor planning of these towns.Buildings are just everywhere.A joy to watch your video.Thats where the focus should be.Thanks a ton.
We thank God as kakamega resident because the county government of kakamega.The town has grown.Even the construction of the tallest building in western is going on at town Center.
What people don't understand, even though it looks beautiful, Kericho is only developed along the road, so when you are traveling along the road you will think it's a very big town.
nice one brother, i like even the way you are so neutral and in my opinion i would say you are such a true patriot and we need people like you in this our beautiful Country!...i'm watching this Video and i can see in many roads in this towns there is no good maintenance like even white marking?...Governors wana to let down kazi yao hata sijui ni nini?
All these towns should be upgraded to city status by 2027. So that the expected growth of urban population from current 32% to 50% by 2030 will ease the pressure on Nairobi.
Wow, Kakamega is a beauty. So much greenery and well-planned settlements.
Tru kakamega since time imemorial has wide street s and high rainfall.good climate
I passed by Kakamega while still young living nearby in Kisumu ,it seemed to me a huge town then ,well now its grown to be a major town am sure as I look back in comparison. Would wish to visit .
So people should learn not only Nairobi where you can thrive, this is an educative video. Big Up
Kisii is growing rapidly,I wish we can have good planners for the case of the years to come.
Yoo! Kisii is really expanding, just like the universe itself. Kisii is obviously second after Eldoret
Amazing. Naks, kisii, kach, malindi Eldi my best .
Indeed👌
Bro you should try adocumentary kinda of content about Kenya and worldwide, your voice is very calming and knowledgeable at the same time, you speak very good English my brother 👍
Thank you for your feedback 🙏
Wacha chocha bro
Lovely video. Really surprised by Kisii
Through this channel I get to know Kenya 🇰🇪 ❤️❤️❤️!! The voice is very beautiful too ❤️❤️❤️.In total I'll give 8 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟⭐️⭐️💥🌟🌹🌹🌹
Most welcome and thank you.
Mehn Kisii is super expanding. It falls second after Eldoret. For me I consider Thika to be Nairobi's ouskirt😜. Well researched

Yes i agree with you fellow comrade in KSU
Great observation. I live in Jogoo Estate of Kisii town and I can confirm your sentiments.
Kisii growth is skyrocketing
Very educative content. Never knew about Meru town. Kitale town would have made to this list 10 years ago.
Kisii is coming up very fast with beautiful building n nice resorts,good scenery n above all nice climate.
I am privileged to have lived in eldoret, kericho, homabay,kisumu, siaya and Nairobi. Kericho is beautiful but extremely cold and it's true that it rains almost daily.

I love rain the way you said it rains in Kericho almost everyday that's my future Town. But i heard mosquitoes are too many is it true?
Much love for Kisii town, always competing with the other giants. Soon to be a city-Bravo!
The problem with kisii, its too much congested 😥

The presentation is on another level. Just nailed it
Kakamega...a town that has grown very fast under the devolution era..I really like the town...
Visit town before forcing your hometown
Big up for flying the Kenyan flag high and appreciating my home town Eldoret.

Kisii has influenced growth of Kisumu city unlike Thika getting influenced by Nairobi.
Kisii also has Kisii University and other institutions branches.
In 20 years, Kisii will be the biggest city in the lake regions. Not even Kampala can match this people. #bantuexpansion ongoing.
How has it influenced growth of kisumu
Do you understand what you are typing?
If you actually believe what you typed and it helps you sleep at night we will let you be… 🤭🤣
True
Give facts, don't just type. How is kisii influencing the growth of kisumu?
GOOD WORK BUDDY. GREAT STUFF
Good observation. Let's hope that the towns will be elevated to cities in due time . Thanks.
Bro, u should have been my geography teacher with those shots & analysis 😄. Keep it up 👍🏾
Very beautiful. Kenya is beautiful indeed. Kenya is rich if only we knew and took care of it.
I used to live in Malindi back in the day. What a beautiful place.
Coming from two beautiful towns,Kisii and kericho,,am proud,,I come from kisii originally but didn't know how massive its growing,,,very impressive!!Good work researcher!
I come from the two too ❤Kisii and Kericho.
For kericho your are wrong because even Migori is bigger than kericho
Amazing Content🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Kevoo
My line up would be
1. Eldoret
2. Kisii
3. Thika
4. Kakamega
5. Nyeri
6. Meru
7.Machakos
8.Kericho
9.Naivasha
10.Isiolo
11.Garrisa
12.Malindi
this is mine too
Upto number 9 i might agree. From there we have better towns like Migori,Kitui,Kitale,Bungoma,Nanyuki etc.Also Malindi should be among the top .
Kakamega is much behind of Meru,Nyeri and Malindi don’t even try to compare kakamega with the three because they’re much ahead ( visit all before making a list) kericho will be number 25 because even Nyamira and Narok are big and develop than kericho even Migori is developed than kericho
Great description. 👍
kisii has the potentila of becoming the city of choice if it had roper physical planning.
Wow my home town thika,, I love kisii and vasha
