• Slum Real Estate: The Low-Quality High-Price Puzzle in Nairobi’s Slum Rental Market and its Implications for Theory and Practice (2008, result): “Based on data from other studies on water use and prices in Kenya (see Gulyani, Talukdar, & Kariuki, 2005; Thompson et al., 2000), we can categorically conclude that Nairobi’s slum residents are seriously under-served.”
• The urban transition in Sub-Saharan Africa: implications for economic growth and poverty reduction (2006, background): “It has been shown that in 10 urban sites in East Africa, for example, for households lacking in-house connections, the average queuing time for water rose from 28 minutes per day in 1967 to 92 minutes in 1997 (Thompson et al. 2000).”
