People in Kenya’s rural communities are very close. Everyone knows each other. Usually one neighbor is a member of your extended family. The extended family consist of mothers, fathers, grandparents , sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles and cousins. Each member of a tribe has a strong sense of responsibility to take care of each other. Each person has a job to do that means everyone is counting on each other to make their home successful.
Elders in the tribe usually meet to solve disagreements within. All help each other weather it is to help finish a job physically or help send someone to school financially. When villagers move to Nairobi or another fast moving town it puts a strain on tribal and family strong ties. The advantage is when people move to the city to find work, they give financial support to those back home.
