Urban Expansion: Why the Outskirts Are the New Goldmine

Have you noticed how big cities keep getting busier, louder, and more expensive? That’s because cities are growing—and when that happens, something special starts to happen just outside the city: the outskirts become valuable.

This is called urban expansion, and it’s one of the smartest reasons people are rushing to buy land outside major city centers. Let’s break it down so it’s easy to understand.


🌆 What Are the Outskirts?

The outskirts are the areas just outside a city or town. They’re usually quieter, have more open land, and are less crowded. Places like Ibusa, Ogwashi-Uku, and other fast-growing towns near Asaba are great examples.


💡 Why Are the Outskirts the New Goldmine?

1. Land Is Cheaper (For Now!)

In the outskirts, land prices are still low. But as more people move there and development begins, the price goes up quickly. That means if you buy now, your land will be worth much more in the future.

2. Cities Are Getting Full

As more people move to cities, there’s less space left. So what happens? The city starts spreading into nearby towns. Roads, schools, shops, and businesses follow. Suddenly, what was once “too far” becomes the new hotspot.

3. Big Plans Are Happening Outside Cities

Governments and developers are building roads, estates, schools, and markets in the outskirts. Once this development starts, land becomes more useful—and more expensive. Smart investors buy early before this boom.

4. It’s Perfect for Building Homes or Rentals

Many people want to live in peaceful areas with fresh air and space. The outskirts are perfect for building homes or rental properties that people will love—especially students, young families, or retirees.

5. You Don’t Need Millions to Start

Unlike central city lands, many estate lands on the outskirts are affordable. At Conic Homes and Properties Ltd, we have properties in places like Ogwashi-Uku and  Ibusa, where you can start investing with flexible payment plans.


🛠️ Real-Life Example

A few years ago, people thought Ibusa and Ogwashi-Uku were “too far.” But today, estates are rising, roads are being built, and investors are smiling. Those who bought land early now see their property value double—or more!


✅ food for thought

The outskirts may seem quiet today, but they are tomorrow’s cities in the making. If you want to build wealth, live in peace, or leave a legacy, start looking outside the city now. That’s where the goldmine lies.
