About Rumuruti Municipality
Updated on: Jan 22, 2021
Rumuruti Municipality is the formal headquarters of Laikipia County. The municipality is centrally located and thus easily accessible from all parts of Laikipia County.
Rumurutis population has grown from 32, 993 in 2009 to a projected population of 42,585 in 2021. Most of the population is below the age of 35. The rate of population growth is expected to rise owing to the status as County Headquarters, the construction of the Nyahururu Maralal highway, and the growing integration of Northern Kenya to the rest of the country, in which Rumuruti acts as gateway.
