The Kamba community is found majorly in three counties Machakos, Makueni, and Kitui.
However, there are counties neighboring Ukambani where the Kamba community can be found although not in large numbers. These counties include Taita Taveta, Murang’a, and Embu counties among others.
A spot check by this writer has shown that in Nairobi City, the community has shown a liking for specific towns for dwellings.
When visiting these places you may think you have landed in Kathonzweni, Kangundo, or any other popular place in Ukambani.
In no order here is a list of Estates in Nairobi where you would find a lot of Kambas.
Pipeline
Found in Embakasi South Constituency and has many Kambas living there. This can be proven by the fact that the Member of Parliament here is a Kamba too, Joshua Musili Mawathe currently serving his second term.
Huruma
Said to be a low-income residential estate located in the Northeast of Nairobi. Just like Pipeline, you would find quite many Kambas here.
Dandora
D as many call it is known to have the largest dumpster in Nairobi county and neighbors Kariobangi and Baba Ndogo. This too is among the preferred dwelling areas by the community.
Mathare
