The cost of living in some Nigerian cities have sent some people away from their birthplace to resettle in some other cities. In the midst of a crunched economy, there are still some cities in Nigeria that accommodate living comfortably within one's income. Here is a list of some of these cities.

The cost of living is relativey low in Ibadan, with affordable houses, cheap foodstuffs and transportation, and social amenities. As old as it is, it has grown to be a developed city that even has some of neighbouring city residents like Lagos settle there.
Kaduna: A city and state in the Northern Nigeria, Kaduna is one of the cheapest cities to live in. With cheap transportation to food items, you can barely spend a quarter of your income on these two things. Even in the posh areas of Kaduna, you can get an affordable self-convenient housing of N50, 000.
Osogbo: One would think that as the capital city of Osun state, Osogbo would be a no-go city for settlers. But, no. The capital city is even cheaper compared to some other places in the state. Though depends on where you are going, and your bargaining power, a Taxi drop popularly called 'korope' is N30. Not to talk of housing; housing apartments are very cheap in Osogbo.
