Where Old Money Resides in Kenya 🇰🇪 East & Central Africa’s Most Exclusive Suburb ,Karen

[@Onelove-Oneheart-h4c]

Kenya is not playing 🙌🏽 watching from South Africa 🇿🇦

[@SafariWithDanny]

@@Onelove-Oneheart-h4c much appreciated thank you

[@alexchui3511]

Glad to hear this from a South African. And when I mention to SAns in other channels about how Kenya can compare to SA on many things they always tell me it can't just because they believe no other country in sub-sahara Africa can compare with SA. And good thing about Kenya is that black Kenyans own majority of their economy and wealth unlike SA.

[@abocas]

The thing is that Karen and similar places in Nairobi, like Muthaiga, is not just where old money resides. It is very much a sign of wealth acquired in a not so fortunate way. A la lot (but not all) of these houses have owners who became wealthy through so-called tenderpreneurship and simply through corruption. Mostly present and former politicians/businessmen. Sorry to say that but it is the sad thruth.

[@xoxomacx2539]

They don’t want you to know how great it is so they can enjoy it themselves and keep stealing the minerals without anybody making noise about it.

Not to mention the weather is fantastic, and no it’s not very hot like they make out all of Africa is hot.

I think you mean "gated estates". Those might be more difficult to access. Maybe search for Tatu City, Thika Greens, Vipingo Ridge or Tilisi

They are but mostly consist of about 30 houses not like the ones in Joburg which can have >200 ,here it's really hard to film inside those estates if not a resident

You've done Karen justice, most people just show the greenery without the homes. But Karen is more about new money, old money is Muthaiga. Good job @SafariWithDanny. Give us mor e of these.

[@SafariWithDanny]

@@alexchui3511 thank you so much n the reason people show just greenery is because houses are hidden deep in trees and tall fences but we tried our best to show you this

[@ShastaLevi]

Hard to show Karen homes because most are hidden behind tall trees with those situated in big compounds completely hidden. What you mostly seeing are new units built in new smaller lots. Both old money and new reside in Karen. Karen is way huge than Muthaiga hence a very huge portion still underdeveloped hence why we see newer smaller establishments unlike muthaiga which is fully occupied and developed hence pretty hard to see new developments, Muthaiga is also mostly occupied by consulate residences.

[@ShastaLevi]

@@SafariWithDanny True story kabisa. Years ago l went to take a stroll in Karen nione vile matajiri huishi, l was really disappointed coz there was really nothing to see as most houses were tacked behind tall trees with most only a glimpse of the roofs being visible. Back then these new developments with smaller lots where you can see the houses over the fence were unheard of.
