Migori Town is a thriving, cosmopolitan centre, with entrepreneurs keen to take advantage of its closeness to the border town of Isebania.
Its quick commercial growth has also attracted several institutions of higher learning, among them Kisii and Kenyatta universities, which have set up satellite campuses to serve the town’s growing population.
Property development in Migori and Homa Bay towns in western Kenya has been steadily on the rise.
Consequently, the price of land in prime areas in Migori Town, where developers are putting up rental property, has gone up considerably, as has house rent.
