Kalley Sud ("Kalley South") is located in downtown Niamey and is part of the Kalley district . The neighboring districts are Abidjan in the northwest, Poudrière in the northeast, Collège Mariama in the east, Nouveau Marché in the southeast, Kalley Center in the southwest and Kalley Est in the west. The district is located in a table land with a layer of sand, which is more in the north and in the center and less than 2.5 meters in the south. To the north of Kalley Sud is the Old Muslim Cemetery of Niamey . The residential area southwest of the Boulevard de l'Indépendance is called - after the French name of the Vietnamese bay Vịnh Hạ Long - Baie d'Along .

The standard scheme for street names in Kalley Sud is Rue KL 1 in the northern part and Rue NM 1 in the southern part . The French rue for street is followed by the abbreviation KL for Kalley or NM for Nouveau Marché 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. These zones do not necessarily coincide with the administrative boundaries of the eponymous districts.
