Rent in Alimosho

Alimosho is Lagos's most populated LGA with over 2 million residents — a sprawling, densely packed residential area that offers the cheapest rents in Lagos at ₦400K–₦1.2M for a 2-bed. This is where the majority of working-class Lagosians actually live. The area is far from the Island (2-3 hours by danfo), has Band E power (4-8 hours NEPA), and minimal modern infrastructure. But the trade-off is straightforward: a family can live here on ₦150K/month total cost including rent, food, and transport to a mainland job. For the millions of Lagosians earning ₦100K–₦300K monthly, Alimosho isn't a compromise — it's the only option.
