Crime & Law Enforcement
The Crime & Law Enforcement section could use better wording in places ("Crime levels and safety have very much improved in Nairobi over recent years. Violent crime is rare but petty crime can still be an issue"). Also needs more/better sources. 2605:8D80:7500:9D91:2871:CBFF:FEAB:3C13 (talk) 01:48, 8 October 2025 (UTC)
Culture: Nickname for Nairobi
Ever since I was young I've heard Nairobi being nicknamed as "Shamba la Mawe" you can add on it as well. Luciee254 (talk) 21:33, 27 December 2025 (UTC)

- Thank you for the correction but again that is a common slang with Nairobians and I don't see any harm in including it as one of the nicknames. Luciee254 (talk) 22:22, 27 December 2025 (UTC)
