Rivers State capital on the Niger Delta — Nigeria's oil-industry capital (Shell, ExxonMobil, Chevron all have significant operations), home to the country's busiest non-Lagos port. The Old Government Residential Area (GRA) and the New GRA are the upscale residential anchors; Trans-Amadi is the industrial-and-warehouse corridor. Nigeria has no DNV; e-Visa requires advance approval. The structural draws are oil-industry employment density (and the corresponding expat-and-contractor infrastructure) and Niger Delta cultural depth. The structural friction is genuine security volatility — verify advisories actively, and Port Harcourt-specific kidnapping concerns require local security guidance.

Editorial estimates. Not financial advice. The 4% rule is a planning anchor, not a guarantee — sequence-of-returns risk and tax-jurisdiction friction (US-LLC / FEIE / state residency) can move the real number meaningfully. See our expat tax directory for the cross-border side of the math.
