Well, one way to get to Nairobi South C (from Nairobi CBD)
is to take Mombasa Road, then turn right at Belle Vue (pronounced BelleView).
That area starting from Belle Vue is the one known as South C. Another approach
is where, from Nairobi CBD, you take Uhuru Highway, then turn right at Nyayo
Stadium round about, drive on for about 500 meters, then turn left to enter
into South C.
However if you are looking to visit the CID/DCI training school in
South C, you will find it right on Mombasa road: start looking for it at
Capital Center mall, it should be somewhere on the opposite side.
South
C is one of Nairobi’s oldest estates, and one that has managed to retain an
aura of decency over the years. I think that South C is in Lang’ata
constituency (which previously used to stretch all the way to Kibera, before it
was divided to yield Kibra and Lang’ata constituencies). Someone mentioned to me that South C, just like Eastleigh, is increasingly growing into one of the Somali strongholds in Nairobi (though I don’t know how factual that assertion is).
South C rents can be somewhat expensive (owing to its proximity to Nairobi CBD), though there are still some bedsitters that can be had at relatively low rents for people who are just starting out or for students
