Where to Live in Zimbabwe

Neighbourhoods ranked by the Weighted Utility Index (WUI). We prioritise ZESA stability, borehole access, and road security over marketing hype.

How we rank suburbs

Every suburb is scored by residents on a weighted index — safety carries the most weight, followed by utility reliability (ZESA and water), road condition, and mobile signal. The split is each factor's share of the overall score.

Popular Forum Questions

I turned my garage into a hair salon. ZIMRA officers are now demanding the 15% Commercial Presumptive Tax on 'rental income.' Since I own the house and don't charge myself rent, how is this calculated, and can they garnish my personal bank account?

I am in Australia and hired a registered Project Manager to build my house. I sent $30,000 for roofing, but he used sub-standard timber and pocketed the difference. The roof is sagging. Can I report him to a regulatory body or is this just a police matter

0 answers · Madokero Estate

My neighbor in a cluster complex just sank a septic tank and soakaway only 15 meters from my borehole. With the cholera scares, can I get EMA or the City Council to halt their construction, or does my water security not matter on their private land?

0 answers · Greendale

I installed a $5,000 5kVA solar system at my rented house. My lease is up, and the landlord says the panels and inverter are now 'permanent fixtures' attached to the property and I cannot remove them. Is this true?

0 answers · Sentosa

I rented my furnished cottage on Airbnb for a 6-week stay to a local. They stopped paying after week 4, refuse to leave, and are citing the Rent Regulations requiring a 3-month eviction notice. How do I bypass the Rent Board for a short-term let?

Once maintained low density suburb Waterfalls was once a clean and quiet neighborhood. Since the disorganized "Retreat" section was built, the area has become overcrowded and poor. It now faces big problems like leaking sewage and a lack of transport, just like high-density suburbs

The city is still developing in some areas but in some its a world classy. Its a mix of two sides,the low density and the high density A lot of conjestion during pick hours WNo water,electricity is always avaible this year,poor sewer and drainage system. High rate of murder especially at night,its not a safe place at all

It's mostly noisy especially from first street moving towards market square. During the morning or after 4 pm, the roads and pavements are barely walkable as roadside traders are all over the places. Traffic during those hours will be very heavy.
