Computed just now by the same engine as the estimator, standard finish, land excluded.
These figures were surveyed in Touba, each with its source and its date. The rest of the price list starts from the national band and applies the city’s difference.
The second city and the capital of the Mouride brotherhood, 190 km from Dakar. It pays the cement haul, 3,000 to 7,000 FCFA a tonne over Dakar, but builds at a pace its size alone would not explain: the diaspora funds a great deal here. Still below Dakar, where land and wages weigh more.
