Nigeria

Coliving in Nigeria

Nestled in the western part of Africa is a country known for its multiethnic society and abundant natural resources. Nigeria is a place where digital nomads and ex-pats go-to for lower costs of living and culture-rich destinations.

Nigeria, for one, is filled with nature reserves and conservation centers that give you a taste of the country’s wildlife. And since Nigeria is one of the countries situated at the edge of Africa, it’s also filled with different beaches to combat the dry and tropical weather.

Other than what nature has to offer, you can also find vibrant spots such as the Kano City Walls in Kano City and the Lekki Arts and Crafts Market in Lagos are just some of the city sights you can explore.

The coworking trend has been growing in Nigeria for years now, along with the high probability of seeing coliving spaces soon. As more startups continue to pop up here and there, more and more people now have the freedom to live and work anywhere. Some of them see Nigeria, specifically the largest city of Lagos, as a viable destination to move into.

A few facts about Nigeria:

- Nigeria is also called the “Giant of African Countries”
- Nigeria is the 7th most populous country in the world
- There are over 520 spoken languages in Nigeria
- The country has the largest economy in Africa due to its export market
- Nigeria’s capital is Abuja
- There are 250 ethnic groups in Nigeria
- The most popular sport in Nigeria is football
- The movie industry is called Nollywood and it’s one of the top movie industries in the world (next to Hollywood and Bollywood)
- The word “Nigeria” derived from the word “Niger”, which is the longest river in West Africa.

If you’d like to prioritize the low cost of living while also having a jump-off point to the rest of Africa, Nigeria is a good option. Your monthly budget as a digital nomad will take you far in this country, giving you more than enough to explore all the other wonders offered by Nigeria.

Finding affordable communal living in Nigeria

Finding affordable housing in Nigeria can be tough, especially in cities with high rent prices. One solution that many people turn to is communal living with shared spaces and roommates. This can be a cost-effective way to have a private room while still being able to afford rent in a desirable location. There are a few different options for finding a shared living arrangement in Nigeria. One option is to look for a private room for rent in a coliving home. This can be a good option for people who want some privacy, but still want to be part of a community. Another option is to look for a shared room, where you'll be sharing a bedroom with one or more roommates. This can be more affordable, as you'll only be responsible for paying for your own bed. The downside is that you'll have less privacy, as you'll be sharing a bedroom with others. You can find both accommodation options on Coliving.com. We can help you find a compatible roommate based on your preferences and lifestyle. Some hosts do background checks and eviction history checks to ensure that the roommates you're living with are trustworthy individuals. When looking for a shared living arrangement, it's important to do your due diligence and make sure that you're comfortable with the living arrangement and the people you'll be living with.

What is coliving?

Coliving is a new trend amongst millennials for renting shared apartments. Whether you're moving to Nigeria for work or just looking for a new apartment, coliving in Nigeria is a good way to save money and live with like-minded people. Co-living places people from different backgrounds together and encourages them to interact, collaborate and form new friendships.
