About Nakuru
Nakuru's rental market split cleanly in 2021 when Nakuru Town was upgraded to city status. Nakuru Town itself has a growing supply of modern apartments in Section 58, Milimani and Kiamunyi, catering mostly to civil servants, teachers and professionals at the regional offices of national agencies. Naivasha is a distinct market driven by tourism (around Lake Naivasha), geothermal operations (Olkaria, Eburru) and flower farms — expect a mix of farm staff housing, short-stay units aimed at Nairobi weekenders, and mid-market apartments aimed at professionals at KenGen and the flower firms. For a family move to Nakuru, Section 58 and Milimani are the reference points; for a Naivasha move, La Belle Inn area and Karagita are the main anchors.
