Mombasa County, Administrative division in coastal Kenya
Mombasa County extends over 229.7 square kilometers of land mass along the Indian Ocean, making it the smallest county in Kenya.
The region transformed from a British East Africa capital in 1887 to an essential county after Kenya's administrative reformation in 2013.
The population consists of multiple ethnic groups, with the Mijikenda community representing 35 percent and the Kamba community comprising 30 percent of residents.
The county divides into six constituencies - Changamwe, Jomvu, Kisauni, Nyali, Likoni, and Mvita - each containing specific administrative wards.
The entire county maintains 100 percent urbanization, while featuring elevation variations from sea level to 100 meters at Nguu Tatu hills.
