Local Vibe
Tshikapa is the capital city of Kasaï Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The city is located 60 km (37 mi) north of the Angolan border and 189 km (117 mi) west of Kananga at the confluence of the Tshikapa and Kasai rivers. According to records published by the Utrecht University library, the population of the city grew from 38,900 in 1970 to 180,900 in 1994. However, the Congo wars and the Kamwina Nsapu rebellion triggered waves of internal displacement, with many residents fleeing violence or relocating temporarily. The World Population Review estimates the 2025 population of Tshikapa and its urban agglomeration at 1,185,920.
