The World's Largest Slums:

Dharavi, Kibera, Khayelitsha & Neza

While the number of people living the five biggest slums in the world amounts to 5.7 million, this is only just a drop in the ocean.

Today, by the most conservative estimates, about 900 million people live in slums. But most experts agree that including different types of informal settlements, the number goes up to 1.6 billion – which represents 1/4 of the world’s urban population.

By 2030, it’s estimated that it 1 in 4 people on the planet will live in a slum or other informal settlement. Let’s take a tour of the world’s biggest slums:

Khayelitsha in Cape Town (South Africa): 400,000

Kibera in Nairobi (Kenya): 700,000

Dharavi in Mumbai (India): 1,000,000

Neza (Mexico): 1,200,000

Orangi Town in Karachi (Pakistan): 2,400,000

Due to population growth and the migration trend from rural areas to cities, these slums are clearly here to stay.
