Inside the city of Cairo

When you are driving into the city, you get a real sense of how poor it is. This is very typical of inner city housing. Family is very important and everyone in a family will work many jobs so that the kids get an education, but it's a tough life.
None of the buildings look finished, bacause they aren't, and they probably will never be finished. Once a building is complete you have to pay taxes on it, so most buildings will stay unfinished.
