This thread is for those that intend to settle down in other states or localities in the country. Most people usually have a phobia for moving from their home or locality because they do not know what they will see when they do. This post is thus fashioned to enlighten those that haven't travelled around the country and may not be able to yet they need to know what obtains pertaining the quality of life in other places.
If you are well travelled, you may contribute to this thread by highlighting those places you think are the best places to live in this country. In your consideration, take note of cost of living, beauty of the place, population of the place, development, the government there and the indigent people that stay there. You may choose to present only one place or more than one place but make sure it is in Nigeria.

Enugu city. Quiet and not so expensive like other cities. The city is generally well planned and beautiful except for some parts but it's only a matter of time before those places get properly developed.
I don't live there presently but have spent some time there and I visit there often.
I look forward to owning a house there. It's a good place to raise a family.

I would have mentioned Abuja since it's the capital of Nigeria but I feel that the city is too expensive for nothing (blame it on the excess money flowing in that city). Spent some months there and I just didn't like the place. Better to go and spend little money in a place like Enugu where I'll really be happy than to earn big and still spend much in Abuja with little satisfaction.

Anambra is also a good state to live in if you are looking for a state where development (especially infrastructure) is decentralized. There is hardly any remote village in that state. Most of the towns and villages have modern buildings and good roads with proper road signs. Kudos to their govt and the private individuals who have helped to bring development to their people.

But in all, Enugu city is my choice.

[b]My favourite state to live in Nigeria is Enugu.
It is a lovely state with great weather, low crime rate and good roads.
If you are looking for the quiet life, then enugu is for you.
The scenery is also great and everything you need can be found in Enugu.


2nd favourite place to live in is Calabar.
Very neat and lovely state. The weather is a little too humid for my liking and you will end up perspiring alot.
Depends on the time of the season. The state is basically a low income state. Government and tourism is the biggest source of income.
If you are a womanizer, calabar is also the place to be.

3rd favourite place: Lagos.

Lagos is like the New-york of Nigeria. High stress levels, class disparity and acceptable security. If you love the fast life then lagos is for you.
I would strongly recommend you live in the sub-urban areas and avoid in inner cities. You could stay in either ikeja, lekki, ajah or festac.
i wouldnt recommend living in any other area.

4th fav place: abuja.
i havent really lived in abuja but from my visits, it looks very good. VERY HOT WEATHER SHA!!!..... oya, the ball in ya court![/b]

Been thinking of relocating to Nigeria from the U.S. or at the least have a penthouse in Nigeria, and I've been wondering which part of Nigeria is the best in terms of security, beauty and orderliness. I feel Abuja, Calabar and Enugu are the best. What say you?

I love this city! Call it the Paris of Nigeria if you like. Everything from the beauty, the people there and even the cost of living is moderate and appealing.
