Kampala, Uganda

Capital City

Kampala has a rapidly growing population of 1,797,722 (2024 census), but the city's infrastructure struggles to keep up. Bureaucracy is a persistent headache, with frequent delays and red tape. The tropical climate brings heavy rainfall, especially from February to June, while periodic terrorist attacks have shaken the city in recent years. Still, Kampala's vibrant culture, buzzing nightlife, and economic opportunities make it an appealing destination for Ugandans and expats alike - if you can handle the challenges.
