Dar Es Salam is a district ( French : quartier ) in the Arrondissement Niamey II of the city of Niamey in Niger .

geography

Dar es Salam (from Arabic دار السلام Dār as-Salām , DMG Dār as-Salām  'House of Peace') is located north of the historical center of Niamey. The surrounding districts are Cité Chinoise in the north, Banifandou I in the northeast, Tourakou in the southeast, Issa Béri in the south and Riyad in the west. The district is located in a table land with a layer of sand that is less than 2.5 meters deep in the north and more than 2.5 meters in the south. The dry valley Gounti Yéna runs through Dar Es Salam, which has an alluvial soil with a high groundwater level that does not allow infiltration.

The standard scheme for street names in Dar Es Salam and the neighboring district of Riyadh is rue FK 1 , where the French rue for street is followed by the abbreviation FK for Foulani Kouara and finally a number. This goes back to a project to name streets in Niamey in 2002, in which the city was divided into 44 zones, each with its own letter abbreviations. The Foulani Kouara district, which is now further north, has been moved several times in its history.

Dar es Salam is considered one of the most dangerous areas of Niamey in terms of robbery and theft.

history

In the 1970s, only the eastern part of what would later become the district along national road 24 was built on with the Foulani Kouara settlement. The rest of the area consisted of fields, gardens and orchards. The Dar Es Salam neighborhood emerged in the 1980s, a decade of particularly rapid population growth in Niamey, alongside a number of other new neighborhoods.

population

At the 2012 census, Dar Es Salam had 20,535 residents who lived in 3,387 households. At the 2001 census, the population was 22,632 in 3,634 households, and at the 1988 census, the population was 4303 in 654 households.

Infrastructure

Dar Es Salam's two-hectare market is to the north of the neighborhood. It was redesigned in 1998 and is important for the entire urban area of ​​Niamey. The public primary school Ecole primaire de Dar Es Salam was founded in 1987. The secondary school Collège d'enseignement général de Dar Es Salam (CEG Dar Es Salam) was founded in 2002. In the district there is a health center with a Center de Santé Intégré (CSI).
