Agege
729 properties are listed now.
Agege is one of Lagos State's most popular suburbs and local government areas. It is centrally located in Lagos, with Abule Egba to the north, Ikeja to the south, Iyana Ipaja to the west, and Ogba to the east.
It was founded in 1954, but the name Agege was derived long before that from the Yoruba phrase "age igi," which translates as "tree cutters." Agege was well-known for its kola nut plantations at the time. The Hausas who lived in the area were also well-known for cutting these kola nut trees for a living. Traders and other settlers, such as the Yoruba tribe's Awori sub-group, began to refer to the area as "Ilu awon age igi," which translates to "the town of the tree cutters." The name stuck and eventually evolved into Agege.
Agege has a population of over 635,000 people as of 2016, with a young population. Since Agege Local Government was formed, three other local governments in Lagos have been formed: Alimosho, Ifako Ijaiye, and Orile-Agege Local Government Areas. Agege is surrounded by popular neighbourhoods such as Ikeja, Ogba, Egbeda, and Abule Egba.

If you are a Nigerian, you are probably aware of the country's recent revival of modern railway transportation. Agege is one of the places that is seeing this improvement.

It connects trips from Lagos to Ogun and Oyo states, with plans to expand to include more states in the future.
Agege is a connecting area to major locations in Lagos, so it is not surprising that it has a lot of traffic.
