==== Enkulaakulana y'ebibuga ====
Okusinziira ku biva mu kunoonyereza kw'okukozesa ettaka, okukula kw'ekiibuga tekwaviiriddeko kukulaakulana okw'obwenkanya okw'ebitundu ebina: i) Lumbadzi, ii) Kanengo, iii) Capital Hill, ne iv) Old Town. Mu kifo ky'ekyo, okukula kw'ekibuga kukwataganyizibwa n'ebifo bibiri ebikulu eby'ebyenfuna (Ekibuga eky'Edda n'Ekibuga Ekikulu). Ekkubo ly'okugaziya ebibuga kati ligenda mu bukiikaddyo, mu bukiikakkono bw'ebuvanjuba, mu bukiika bw'ebugwanjuba ne mu bugwanjuba kubanga ebifo by'abantu ebisinga birina akakwate n'ebifo by'ebyenfuna. Okusinziira ku nteekateeka y'ekibuga ky'e Lilongwe mu biseera eby'omu maaso, enkola ya Cluster Shape Development yakkirizibwa ng'enkola endala ey'enkulaakulana y'ekifo ky'ekibuga. Mu myaka egyakayita, enkulaakulana y'ekibinja ky'abantu emanyiddwa nnyo abateesiteesi b'ebibuga mu nsi yonna kubanga y'esobola okuteekawo enkola y'ebitundu ku kigendererwa ky'enkulaakulana n'okuziyiza okugaziwa kw'ebibuga okutaliiko nkomerero.<ref name="MLHU1"/>

=== Okutuuma  ennyumba n'ebitundu ebiriraanyeewo ===

==== Ebitundu ====
Ekibuga kya Lilongwe kyagabanyizibwamu ebitundu ebiweebwa ennamba. Ennamba ziteekebwa mu ngeri y'ebiseera, so si  webisaangibwa , n'olwekyo Ekitundu 1 kyandibadde ekitundu ekisooka, Ekitundu 2 eky'okubiri n'ebirala. Ekifo ekizimbibwa mu kibuga Lilongwe kifaanana ng'ekiyondo ekisangibwa wakati w'ekibuga eky'edda n'ekibuga ekikulu.<ref name="MLHU1"/>

Ekibuga Lilongwe kirimu ebitundu okuva ku 1 - 58 . Okubala abantu okw'omwaka gwa 2008 kwazingiramu dda ekitundu 58 ng'ekitundu ky'ekibuga kya Lilongwe, ne kikyusibwa okuva mu Disitulikiti y'e Lilongwe eyasooka. Enkulaakulana y'amayumba [[:en:Urban_sprawl|n'okututumuka  kw'ebibuga]] bikyaliwo nnyo mu kibuga Lilongwe naddala mu kitundu ky'ebukiikaddyo. Okukulaakulana kw'ebibuga kati kugenda mu bukiikaddyo bw'ebuvanjuba, ne mu bugwanjuba ku kigero ekitono. Mu butuufu, ebibuga kigaziwa  ku nsalo ezimu ez'obukiikaddyo (Ekifo 36, 38, 46, 56, 57 ne 58).

==== Omuwendo gwa mayumba ====
