Nyeri (officially known as Nyeri Municipality) is a town in Kenya, and the administrative headquarters of the country's Central Province.
The town is situated about 150 km (a two hour drive) north of Kenya's capital Nairobi, in the country's densely populated and fertile Central Highlands, lying between the eastern base of the Aberdare (Nyandarua) Range, which forms part of the eastern end of the Great Rift Valley, and the western slopes of Mount Kenya.
The town's population was 98,908 in Kenya's last official census in 1999, but is estimated to have grown to between 200,000 and 300,000.
Nyeri's Central Business District is small, with only a few buildings being above five stories and one above eight. Its general appearance, owing mostly to lack of sidewalk paving and the basic decoration of its buildings, is dusty and shabby.
It has a relatively low cost of living in comparison to Nairobi and other major towns in Kenya. Located in Kenya's fertile highlands, food and waterOnline are plentiful and relatively cheap.
