Mlango Kubwa

It’s a relatively small place but what goes on within is bigger than its size. Housing consists of iron sheet houses tucked beneath towering flats where tenants live in single rooms. Located along Juja Road just after Pangani Girls High School bordering Mathare Slum & Eastleigh market. Currently the government is constructing houses for the Nyumba yangu scheme. It’s a very low income area. A report compiled by the Nairobi Region Security Research and Information Centre (SRIC), Mlango Kubwa is one of the the five hot spots of crime in the capital city.
