- 20 Most Expensive,Beautiful, and Prestigious Neighbourhoods in Africa
Hello Displorers, welcome back to another exciting video presented to you by Displore and thanks for watching . In this video, we shall be taking you around the beautiful continent of Africa showing you the 20 most prestigious and beautiful neighbourhoods in Africa. The stereotypes that Africans live in hurts, trees and on roof tops is now a myth of the past as recent exposure of the African continent to the world has shown most people in the developed world that some of them cannot even afford living in some of the cities in Africa. Even if you can find somewhere affordable in a city, some neighbourhoods are way off limits if you don’t have a heavy bank account to back it up. The compulsion to escape from the pressures of the modern world to imaginary utopias has long been a lucrative selling point for urban developers and is a true phenomenon in many cities in Africa. The rise in the number of millionaires has led to property boom as they search for their own little ‘utopias’. While you are dreaming big, some people are already living big just by the neighbourhoods they choose to live in.
If you are new here, welcome, be sure to subscribe and turn on notifications so you don’t miss any of our videos.
If you have a taste for prestigious neighbourhoods and fanciful living, grab your check booklets as we look through the top 20 most beautiful, expensive, and prestigious neighbourhoods in Africa. Offcourse in no particular order.
20. Cocody ( Abidjan) - Ivory Coast
This is one of the neighbourhoods to live in for the jet set and elite of Ivory Coast; Cocody has been referred to as the ‘Beverly Hills of Abidjan’ for several reasons. As the home to the cultural elite, embassies, and expats of prominence, the area also offers some of the most spectacular views in the city and is surrounded by other areas that are currently vying to be the next neighbourhood of note in Abidjan. Cocody is beautiful and prestigious and you must have a happy Bank account to afford an apartment in the neighbourhood
19. Masaki ( Dar Es Salaam) - Tanzania
Masaki is one neighbourhood in Dar Es Salaam that has emerged as the place to relax in the arms of luxury, with most of the area’s inhabitants high ranking dignitaries and ambassadors from around the world. Those that live in the area are minutes away from international cuisine and a great nightlife that continues to attract more people of affluence to the neighbourhood every year. Securing an apartment is extremely difficult but if your bank account is fully loaded why Not.
18. East Legon, Ghana
East Legon is an area which screams affluent by its very look as it is occupied by sophisticated modern low-rise apartment blocks and detached houses. The population here is kept at minimal and the prices both for buying and renting an apartment are extremely high. It is also the safest neighbourhoods in Ghana. East Legon offers a serene environment with the villas so rounded by the lush green trees as well the perfect manicured side-walks. To own a home here will set you back $2 million on average which is why it is inhabited by footballers and Business tycoons.
17. La Marsa (Tunis) Tunisia
La Marsa is a coastal town in far north eastern Tunisia near the capital Tunis. La Marsa is a beachfront suburb known for its corniche, shopping, bars and cafes. It is home to a number of villas and apartments that are populated by families. The upscale suburb is approximately half-hours drive from the city. House prices here range from $756 to $1,563 per square metre for rent and buying a house is another story of huge financial cost.
16. Miramar (Luanda) -Angola
Luanda has already bagged the title of the most expensive city for expatriates in Africa but then Miramar takes up a notch with well-manicured lawns, palm trees, flowers benches and playgrounds which has become a sure magnet for the rich. Miramar is an exclusive area situated in one of the best neighbourhoods in Luanda, the old cinema. Its major attraction is the Alto das Cruzes cemetery located in the upper town, part of Miramar. It is the most famous cemetery in the city where great people were buried. It is popular with foreign diplomats and extremely wealthy Angolans.
15. Asokoro (Abuja)- Nigeria
Asokoro District is home to the Nigerian presidential complex, Nigerian National assembly, the Supreme Court and brags of the best roads and streets in Nigeria. To wake up to the view of the Aso Rock also found here and enjoy the exclusive haven of beauty, you will have to drop a hefty $ 2,612,500. Besides housing the Presidential Villa in Aso Rock, it also houses the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS Secretariat, National Intelligence Agency, World Health Organization Office and more. For a Neighbourhood with such entities you need to belong to a particular social class to live there.

At least someone featured the positive side of Africa. Thank you fo this piece
instablaster
In regards to S.A....Rosebank shouldn't even feature in this lists. There's Steyn City, Waterfall, Pretoria East, Clifton, Bantry Bay, Fresnye, Balito Umhlanga and the list goes on and on and on.
These Africa list compilation channels do rather poor research I've noticed. It's basically just picking random places and pics from across the continent and then claiming it's a ranking list. And it's not just this channel that does this.
Exact. Like really. Rosebank better then Sandton? And Waterfall, Ballito, Steyn City, noMhlanga. Bakephi bona.
Lalucia
@RoTsAtCo KhTsGa okay and?
There's a place called Simbithi and Zimbali in Ballito, plz Google this places
After reading so many comments about other neighborhoods in Africa, it is encouraging that Africa has many, many nice and nicer neighborhoods than on this list. I love the different designs of houses there. One day, the world will see how beautiful Africa is.
My goodness this is the first time I have ever seen Africa from this point, thank you for sharing.
Nigeria has some other luxurious/beautiful neighbourhoods which are not on the list. There is Katampe, Abuja | River Park, Abuja | VGC, Lagos | Ikoyi, Lagos etc
As in! how many person wan count sef!
Maitama, Banaba Island
My freund that's proba
Man South Africa is really beautiful
Except that you Black South Africans have little or no stake in it. No use boasting when you are an outcast in your own land. Shameless of the narrator to babble on about south African neighborhoods in which our brethren are strangers. Sometimes we love Egypt so much we don't even think of going to our promised land.
@@modisaramoleko7220 do your research and stop being ignorant, i have friends whom i grew up with living in sandhust sandton so you want to tell me that they got no say in their own properties are you kidding me? and of course they are black.
@Sherazade Mayers Not really sure what your black millionaire friends have to do with the 80% of the land being in the hands of less than 10% of the population, or the best.neighborhoods being gated communities not accessible to the black population. But if you are fine with that, then the rest of us in Africa have been bitter over nothing at your apparent mistreatment. Which was precisely my point. Why is the narrator boasting about "white" wealth stolen from the unrequited labour of black South Africans?
The reading comprehension on this channel is truly abysmal. No one is disputing black wealth. But it's ridiculous for the narrator to gush over white neighborhoods built on stolen black labour and resources as if this is normal and something to brag about. Since you bring up Wode Maya, he pointed out precisely this problem when he was in Pretoria with Miss Trudy - and was trolled for it. Are there super rich neighborhoods in South Africa? Yes. Are they accessible and affordable to the general black population other than self-enriching BEE recipients and tenderpreuneurs? No. South Africa is the most unequal society in the world for a.reason: beautiful gated communities for the over-privileged whites, shanty towns with overflowing sewers for the Blacks.
@@modisaramoleko7220 Egypt is in Africa. Why don’t certain Africans have stakes in this section of the earth? Hasn’t scientists stated that the first man and woman originated in Africa? Does Nature know skin color? No. Did you know the word “race” was invented just a few decades ago. As you can see, the color of your outer human costume is less important than the persons character, deeds, actions, self-control, self-discipline, and attitude towards others. Judge me NOT by the color of my skin, but by the CONTENT of my character -Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968).
wow I love this continent AFRICA so beautiful. From RSA🇿🇦
My brother you are right. Africa is our home and we love it both rural and cities
Africa must bulid up more the middle class thats the future not just bulid best for the rich ,
Because a poor person has a bigger chance to be middle class then rich
Africa is a continent with different countries, laws and cultures. So the socioeconomic situation varies. So tired of the ignorance. Actually plain stupidity!
Very true, some of these homes are inhabited for days or months in a year...I'd love to see bustling neighborhoods with good infrastructure, schools, hospitals and green spaces for relaxation for the majority ..not pockets of oppulence to give a false impression of development
Africa has a bigger chance to become, even more poorer and ,eventually pushed out. Africa will sell its own people out and Africa will be over thrown by their foreign investors and residents.
@@stevenphelps7929 what do you mean
@@stevenphelps7929 so negative you are😕
No Mhlanga Rocks, La Lucia, Zimbali, Kysna, Constantia, Garden route, you really need to explore South Africa....
...Steyn city...
African doesn't need expensive nearbyhoods, we need decent and Affordable houses for middle class and working class🙄😕
@zameisie Why? They worked hard therefore we all should work hard...
@@OriginalGaPeach some didnt work hard some inherited it and have to oppress others to keep it(white ppl and black ppl who think like white ppl AKA 'Black white ppl' or c**ns or sellouts).
@zameisie I can understand ur point, but FOR ME the more humane thing to do would be to start a LEGITIMATE organization that would help people gain job training with decent available jobs once they complete the program. Remember the old adage, give them a fish or teach them to fish....
This guy also did one it’s good ruclips.net/video/tUgmOGqidUg/видео.html
In Africa. The housing for middle class is too expensive
Very suprised not to see Muthaiga , Nairobi not on the list...it is the elite most beautiful , expensive and prestigious neighborhood
Exactly.Should review that content.
DUE TO SECURITY REASONS AND BEING HOME TO US AMBASSADOR, AND OWNERS OF THE COUNTRY ITS OFF LIMITS😁
More research needed to go into South African neighbourhood's which makes me think not much research was done regarding other countries as well
Borrowdale Brooke was skipped how? 😂
Felt the same too. From Kenya. I guess this clip is from a Nigerian perpective.
@@likatalikata3823 I was also waiting for kitisuru
Highly doubt it was from a Nigerian perspective his pronunciation for Ikeja was off. I actually suspect Nairobi
@@maryokwara6013 I doubt it was from coz he did not mention some very well known neighbourhoods
Other African countries are so blessed to have a river waterfront in almost all their cities 😍
After checking this video out, I strongly recommend that you go and look up Bantry Bay, Clifton Waterfall and especially Steyn City. Please.
As usual. Nigeria and South Africa lead the continent with Banana Island, Lagos, and Camps Bay, Cape Town.... Great video, and excellent research work here.
There also lead the continent with corrupt politicians.
@@otutu2000 Not according to the Transparency international Index. Loads of countries worse than them in corruption.
Kitusuru in Kenya...is also way above many places mentioned here
Very true...
waambie
Muthaiga in Kenya is way more expensive than Karen or Runda.
Kevin Dome...Land is far more expensive in Karen,Runda and Muthaiga than it is in Kitisuru
Cool video! I wish those countries like Tunisia weren’t so iffy... I’d love to visit. Angola is a must on my list, same with Kenya!
I need a home in Africa God's willing. Blessings from Jamaica
Africa has some very beautiful building and city.
To be honest, South Africa can take the 20 spots alone. Their architecture, interior design, landscaping is world class. Their architects could design any house in Beverly Hills and Bel Air with ease.
🙌

Thank you man for giving us us such valuable information keep it up
These are pretty to look at and dream about, but would u PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a video about the most affordable neighborhoods. Possibly homes between $150,000-$250,000 dollars...
A list of the top 20 affordable, safe neighborhoods would be great.
@@kaydenpat Most definitely
My brother I beg make you review this your ranking it is absolutely wrong sandhurst is actually part of sandton and u won’t find a property there for usd 200 k the cheapest stand alone house start from $1.5 M . I think ur idea of giving information about expensive places is good but try to get the right infos.
hold your horses.... he clearly said its not in particular order
Thanks for the video. You may not have mentioned all the expensive and prestigious sites in Africa but you are giving Africa a good images. I appreciate that a lot.
There is Victoria Island, Gbagodo phase 1 and 2 and Ikoyi in Lagos too
Obviously South Africa takes the throne 🇿🇦✊
Yeah but we own nothing
Just say White South African’s own those prestigious expensive houses leaving the Black SA’s nothing😹
Trassaco Valley, Airport Hills in Ghana are extremely beautiful and expensive not just East Legon
I think also Contanments. I once saw the video of the area and was thoroughly impressed. ❤ from 🇿🇦
Thanks for sharing! This will definitely change the negative perception of Westerners about Africa.
True. I love learning about different aspects of Africa. It was fun to learn where the well heeled live. Maybe the site will do rich neighborhoods regarding the other countries as well someday.
Who cares what they think, why are we always looking for thier approval
No one cares what westerners think lol
Kindly do more research with South Africa,KZN alone,starting from the South Coast to the North Coast,you will never believe trust me.Africa is the best place to be.....
That's true.. North coast of kzn is beautiful, Umdloti, Simbiti etc.. The reason why Rosebank Sandton Hyde Park is because their infrastructure is 👌n business compared to these..
Africa is beautiful, and some of these homes. Immaculate..👌
I thought Zimbali Durban would be here but great video at all. You need to do more research especially about SA. Jorburg and Capetown are not the only cities we have.
I agree with you they never mention anything about Durban of which there's so many Great places here......they're bizy with JHB not fare
Nah durban is moving the opposite direction im glad it not listed!!!
Maybe they are still fresh,ballito simbiti, zimbali.. used to be sugar plantation owned by hullet few years ago
@@niphomtshali8176 what do you mean, coz we are talking about luxury life here do they not qualify?
South Africans chill out about Sandton. He said “in no particular order” Eish
They should be grateful
those three suburbs of Johannesburg are not considered the most BEAUTIFUL, EXPENSIVE, and PRESTIGIOUS NEIGHBORHOODS, there's countless many other places that are way better, but thanks for the Love.
I pay $6500 a month for my place in nyc damn I could be living in luxury there for that price Tanzania here I come.
Seriously? What do you do for living? I'm curious

@@addyybrown4661 No my home is paid off no mortgage in Rhinebeck Ny I keep an apartment in the city because that is where my business is located,easy to stay there some nights when it’s two late to take the train home.
I only remember hearing "diplomats, governors, senators, politicians, former politicians, footballers, embassies, billionaires and ....heavy bank account....nothing else
I agree. Where are suburban homes for citizens that doesn’t have a heavy bank account?
I was expecting to see beautiful expensive mansions and suburbs but instead what is shown is predominantly cities and some probably expensive but relatively not so beautiful houses.
Lots of love from South Africa anyway
Thank you. Something like Beverley hills not showing city centre lol
Huge social gaps in Africa is one of more concerned..
That’s anywhere there’s different “classes” of people from poverty to the 1%
Income Inequality is a world wide problem
Honestly only kenyan houses n estates looks soo serene and private
YOU have omitted plenty of places eg Heertebersport in South Africa plus Phakalane in Botswan. The other thing is the value of houses you are mentioning in US $ DOESN'T match e.g. the house you are valuing $2million are NOT worth that much.
Clearly you have never been to zimbali in the coast of south Africa and waterkoof ridge aspen hills meyersdale eco estate I will suggest you google estates in south Africa then you will see the beauty of south africa
@@melkamuzerahunfitamo9838 Its crystal , vividly, clear that Zimbali and Umhlanga was ROBBED/CHEATED.

Yer yeah
So you are trying to say that Kenya is the only safe place in Africa?
No! It's your opinion.You live where you feel safe.

lovely thank you for sharing
The sad part about it is the westerns come and live in these so called luxury apartments,because the average African can not even afford these places.
So many Africans do afford though. Or let me say South Africans because that’s where I’m from.
Africans can afford that...
@@jay-dok2258
Namely celebrities, tycoons and politicians.
Would have been good to actually put them in order, including average price for each.

So nice to see beautiful places in other countries that u never see in the media but this was Poorly researched concerning South Africa lol.
Thanks for the video, You missed out on Uganda's; Kololo and Munyonyo areas in Kampala the capital
I wish you did more research on Kenya 🇰🇪,
I totally agree with you
Very interesting!
One of the few things the media won't show
Africa is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇿🇲
Thks for sharing Af is Beautiful
AFRICAN IS Beautiful
Very good coverage....
Madness. There are many many neighbourhoods in South Africa that could easily knock out half the entrants on this list. What's the criteria here?
I think they wanted to include other African countries cause you know how they feel about SA other than that I 100% agree with you
I have my offices in Rosebank. But I think Steyn City should be here instead of Rosebank.
Talks about Runda in Kenya and how its pristine then goes ahead to show old dilapilated building across the other side of town.
Pleas do best neighboorhoods in every country in africa
Great video
good job my brother
Sandton is Africa's most expensive square mile but its on no.13
He said "in no particular order"
Then he should not say, " coming in at no. 3 or no2 or no, 1
I also heard him saying that
The inequality isn't something thats to be proud of
What country doesn't have inequality?
@@chigasaki06 Africa has significantly high inequality. Greedy politicians would rather steal money and give the Chinese contracts than solve education
Their is no need for inequality, all one has to do is get up from their butt and work. Don't think that some fool like Juluis Malema will suddenly come and give every body a solid house to live in. Only people like Malema benefit from the ignorance of the masses.

Nice to watch, and here' a tip from an American, you'd sound more in line with the video product you present if you'd ROUND the price numbers - quoting the prices from millions down to the exact exchange dollar does not make 'cents'.
Africa's standout most expensive neighbourhood Clifton is missing.
Boasting ALL 5 of the Top 5 most expensive streets in Africa. Clifton Rd, Victoria Rd, Nettleton Rd, etc.
South Africa will always show up💯
And show off
As it should ☺🤘
Low interest rates cause over inflated real estate prices globally . Just because a place is expensive doesn’t make it worth the money. You can’t buy a house in the worse neighborhood in Los Angeles,San Diego,San Francisco,Pasadena,Long Beach,Anaheim for less than half a million dollars.
Everywhere was nice, but I would have to say Cape town and Johannesburg is more my speed 👌🏾
My speed😀
I am surprised that Lekki in Lagos is not listed....
Out here we got very affluent neighbourhoods where walking even a few miles away from some you'll get the scent and feel of heaven. Am talking about my KENYA but as I have learned, Africa got PEOPLE with chumes, yo! It terrifies. Unfortunately for the larger population, we'll get to be "people" in heaven. We keepin the faith.

What about Durban zimbali?cost more then most places in this list and the beauty is on another level

A lazy video me thinks. I have been to Namibia, zimbabwe, south africa, botswana etc. This video should have just been titled expensive areas in South Africa, Nigeria and some other few randoms.
True and cape Town should be number one we are not talking about places with few billions here we want places with many people living luxury
Pretty sure Borrowdale Brooks and Glenn lorne in Harare Zimbabwe, and Northend Bulawayo Zimbabwe can easily feature in this list. You guys should travel more.
Northend Bulawayo you made me laugh 😅🤣😅🤣😅🤣😅😅🤣😅🤣
@@brynmuza9525 yes why not
@@mikemusic3172 Mzilikazi is now looking better than Northend
Kitisuru, Nairobi should have been featured. It is much more affluent than Runda. Runda is overrated just because it stands for Reserved United Nations Development Area.

Some people are upset because they think the places are ranked. He said THE LIST IS NOT IN ANY PARTICULAR ORDER.
Theres 54 countries in Africa its a big statement to say the best in the African continent
IT WOUD BE A VERY LONG VIDEO IF YOU HAVETO VISIT 54 AFRICA COUNTRIES, MAYBE NEXT TIME VIDEOS CAN BE MADE DOING 4 COUNTRIESAT A TIME.
Beautiful town.
Bravo Nigeria ❤❤
@8:04 wow is that a house on the left or a public building?
Not sure
I lived in Cocody, Cote d'Ivoire but Deux Plateaux, Cote d'Ivoire where I moved to was nicer I think.
I feel the richest neighbourhoods are those that no one has heard about coz that's how rich people are, check out Steyn city, Bantry Bay, zimbali, Fresnaye & Clifton in SouthAfrica, Muthaiga, Rosslyn, Hurlingham & Lavington in KE
Lavington? Yak
But please don't disrespect Sandton. Even Mandela was staying there
I think so, most rich people want to live a private life away from medias eyes.
Hurlingham? No!
I feel your research is in complete. One of the safest most affluent areas in Ghana is cantonment...is home to all the embassy’s and the home of diplomats and ambassadors. And no is not predominantly white that lives there. Most affluent areas in ghana has very few foreigners and homes are own by Ghanaians and other African investors especially Nigerians.
I'd like to know how many actual Africans or people of African descent actually live in these beautiful neighborhoods, not just Europeans or others from different nations? Not that they shouldn't be allowed to live in these beautiful places, but being in an African nation, I would hope that the majority of the residence are African or of African dissent. I don't believe in being a racisist, but colonialism is and gentrification is as bad and a part of racism.
Lol when you said Sandton I knew then you're misinformed. Sandton is a combination of beautiful suburbs/residential areas, such as one you mentioned Sandhurst, there's plenty more such as Bryanston, Rivonia, Parkhurst, Morning Side, Benmore... Plus if you're going to do richest neighbourhoods in Africa, you need to have a special list of South Africa because we have many cities with amazing neighbourhoods. Also remember most neighbourhoods in SA have their own shopping malls. 😉
But its mostly occupied by whites though

East Legon Trassaco valley in Accra is the most lavished gated community in west Africa
But I think Cantonment, Airport East and Roman ridge supposed to be on the list.. Great work tho
Tho u all are here arguing complaining 😂 ur cities to be among the best .....but I dint see mine and I thought it could be.but I just loved these cities and I didn't know these existed.@ONE BLOOD ALL UNITED LOVE ONE AFRICA.love from the land of a thousand hills 🇷🇼+250🇷🇼 Rwanda,Kigali
Kigali is a city in Rwanda but a part of street here in Dar es Salaam. It can’t be mentioned 😁
Sad thing is these places are beautiful but not affordable to most Africans. And the fact that most Europeans and Americans come and buy all these expensive houses in such neighborhoods further drives the prices even higher thus increasing the gap for the average citizens. Great video and thank you for sharing.
I'm an American who was just in South Africa and in several of the areas mentioned and I agree with you. For me, South Africa is very inexpensive, and locals told me that I should buy a home there. I moved around the country and spent my final days in Sandton before I left, one thing which struck me is that just down the road from my very expensive hotel were people living in very poor townships, many without electricity. It's very difficult for me to reconcile buying what for me would be an affordable home in an affluent area when people are struggling so badly just down the road. I'm one who likes to blend-in and experience everything, not stay tucked-away in my enclave.
@@avestuart I applaud you for making that observation and actually feeling some type of way about the situation. Inequality is South Africa is the biggest problem which is also why crime is so high. Cape Town is much much worse. It would be nice if these nice places were actually benefiting majority of the people.
@@mimimokoele2812 I'm from Zambia and trust me it's so depressing when I see the inequality there cause my country is heading that very direction.
@@joe_lubinda May God bless our beautiful continent with visionary leaders who are for the people.
Sandton should top the list, it is the richest and expensive square mile in africa
Sandton, Cape town, Umhlanga, Zimbali, Simbithi and Ballito.
The presenter said the list was not in any particular order.
@@siphosibongiseni5016 where is simbithi
I knew campsbay was going to top the list
Notice how there’s no single Sub-Saharan African country which was a colony of France in this list. France is still meddling in the affairs of their former colonies in Africa and is the main reason why so many of these Francophone countries are still underdeveloped and ruled by brutal dictatorships. Cameroon, Tchad, Djibouti, Central African Republic, Niger etc… When the Brits and other European countries left Africa, they departed for good. It’s imperative that Africans help their fellow Africans brothers achieve true independence from that God forsaken country of France. Africa is the Future!!!

Cote D'Ivoire and Tunisia made the list.
Nice list but Affluent neighbourhoods in Ghana and you mention East Legon over Trassaco Valley?
I was about to ask
But East legon is top notch too
Your list must include categorically: South African cities: Johannesburg, Cape Town suburbs, 3. Egyptian city suburb, 4. Nigerian city suburb. 5. Durban suburb ,South African. 6. Nairobi suburbs. 7. Morocco suburbs. 8. Pretoria, South Africa surbub. 9. Gabon surbub or Mauritius.
Algeria 🇩🇿 : Am I a joke to u ?
We have a lot of amazing beautiful neighborhood to live in more beautiful than all of this ones on the liste
Sandton number 13 ......surely that must be a mistake .....sandton is the most modern , most sophisticated and the richest corner in all of Africa. More money is exchanged in sandton than any where else on the African continent
He said no particular order
@@benardayore7593 yes
Sandton is the richest square mile... That would be the town itself. The buildings and companies in Sandton the City. The houses it's something else. They are houses more expensive in Houghton, Meyersdal, Rosebank and even Haarties just to name a few... It's not really that expensive to live in Sandton. They are much bigger mansions and more expensive places to live in. It's just a business hub and that's where it gets the title for richest Square Mile in Africa... They are plenty more place worth millions al over South Africa.
