Living in Kiyovu

Kiyovu is a central Nyarugenge neighbourhood, close to downtown Kigali. Older houses, renovated homes, and apartments share streets that have been part of the city’s core for a long time.

Some pockets are quiet; others sit near commercial downtown. Motos, buses, and walking cover more of daily life than on the outer hills. Older buildings need a careful look.

It suits people who want to be near downtown and renters who prefer in-town streets to gated suburbs.
