Most research and initiatives relating to children's experiences of urban space have\udfocused on the physical environment. Housing policies in Third World countries have also emphas-\udised the provision of physical infrastructure and buildings, and urban aesthetics. In this paper the\udauthors draw on the voices of young informants from Maseru (Lesotho), and Blantyre (Malawi),\udwho, in discussions concerning moving house, chose to talk about social and economic aspects of\udlife in the informal sector rented accommodation that is increasingly characteristic of these and\udmany other African cities. The children offer insight into the peopling of urban space, mapping\udunruly environments characterised by disorder, gossip, and social contestation, far removed from\udthe hard technocratic spaces imagined by planners. Their observations are important not only because children represent a very large and relatively neglected proportion of African urban dwellers but also because they offer a unique insight into the dynamic character of urban environments.\udAs close observers of adult decisionmaking processes, children are informed commentators on\udmotivations for moving house as well as the impacts of urban environments on their own lives.\udNot only do the children highlight the inadequacies of the informal private rental sector but they also offer a window onto why it is inadequate
