Wikipedia
Orangi
Orangi (Sindhi: اُورنگي, Urdu: اُورنگی) is a municipality approximately 22 square miles in area that forms much of the northwestern part of Karachi, Pakistan. When grouped with the neighboring municipality of Baldia Town, the Orangi-Baldia population is estimated to be over two million. The municipality was described in a 1999 National Geographic article on Mumbai's Dharavi slum as the "largest shanty town in Asia." Orangi is in fact largely a lower to lower-middle class settlement, and only some parts of Orangi can be characterized as a slum. While Orangi is Karachi's largest largely unplanned settlement, much of Orangi does receive municipal services. 90% of its streets are connected to sewage lines, for example, mostly through the community-installed Orangi Pilot Project, while 96% of homes have their own private latrine or toilet. Over 90% of households in Orangi are connected to Karachi's electric grid.
