    This study investigates the determinants of residential location choice in Bosso local government area (LGA) and Chanchaga local government area (LGA) of Minna, Niger State, Nigeria. Structured questionnaires were administered on tenants who are household heads in the study area to weigh 15 factors that influence their choice of current homes. The discriminant function analysis was employed. The empirical results exhibit statistically significant and largest discriminant loading of factors such as availability of fence wall and large floor area of apartment (dwelling attributes) and location of property in a particular neighbourhood (neighbourhood attribute) as the determinants of residential location of tenants in the study area. The study therefore recommends that all stakeholders in residential property sector in the study area should ensure that building accommodation details are allocated adequate space to meet the needs of tenants and buildings are fenced before offer for letting. The study also recommends that policy makers and planners should ensure that efforts are geared toward restructuring of the unplanned neighbourhoods in Bosso and Chanchaga local government areas (LGAs) whilst maintaining and improving the available facilities and services in planned neighbourhoods. These to a great extent will proportionately enhance satisfaction and shape the residential location decisions of tenants resulting in maximum investment returns to all residential property investors across all the neighbourhoods in Minna.
