North Nazimabad Town

North Nazimabad Town extends across 23 square kilometers with elevation variations from 23 to 123 meters above sea level in northern Karachi.

The region transformed from semi-arid land with Sindhi and Kalmati Baloch villages into a planned residential district during the 1950s federal development program.

The population of 920,476 residents includes a majority of Urdu speakers at 72 percent, followed by communities speaking Pashto, Saraiki, and Punjabi.

The municipality contains ten union committees including Sir Syed, Farooq-e-Azam, Siddiq-e-Akbar, Buffer Zone, Taimooria, Sakhi Hassan, Hyderi, and Al-Falha.

Italian planners Carlo Scarpa and Aldo Rossi designed the district with alphabetically arranged blocks, maintaining its original layout since 1958.
