Climate
Greater Cairo and the surrounding area have a hot desert climate (BWh) in Köppen-Geiger classification, as all of Egypt. Cairo and its surrounding region have very similar day to day temperatures; however, the less populated parts at the east and the west do not have the urban heat, which makes them more prone to have ground frost and soft hail.
Urban issues
60% of all informal houses in Egypt are located in the Greater Cairo area.
