Surulere: the real district behind the game
Lagos Life recreates a real city — and Surulere is one of the real places its map, housing and hangouts are drawn from. Here is both halves: the district as it actually is, and what it does in the game.
Surulere in real Lagos
A residential and commercial mainland LGA — 23 km² and over half a million people at the last census. Real Surulere is beloved for street food (the Amala Shitta strip) and hosts the National Stadium.

The game’s soul food district: Amala Shitta’s cheap, filling lunches, plus the Stadium’s big-match energy.
