However, for Kenyans, those living in Nairobi are almost as likely to use cement as those in Kiambu (78 percent vs. 73 percent, p<0.293). 21.  On average, most Shona community houses are built using stone with lime and cement. Almost half of Shona houses, mainly in Nairobi, have stone with lime or cement as wall materials, which is less than what is observed for nationals living in urban areas where cement blocks are more common (Figure 11). The use of stone with lime for walls is more common for Shona community houses in Nairobi than those in Kiambu. In contrast, Shona house walls in Kiambu are more likely to be built with corrugated iron sheets. Findings 10183_Shona Report.indd 13  13 12/14/20 2:56 PM
