It's a tuulo. Xaafad is a neighborhood within a city.

Let's be perfectly honest, guys. There's only one city in Somalia and that's Mog. Every other settlement is an over-sized shanty-town.

Hargeisa is also a big city saxeeb. Hargeisa is nearly the same size as xamar, but it is way more densly populated. Population wise they have roughly the same number of people. But these 2 cities are miles ahead of every1 else. Then burco comes third.

Village could be buulo or tuulo. Tuulo is more common though. Buulomareer, Buulobarde, Buulogaduud ....etc

It's got nothing to do with size. It's about appearance. Mogadishu looks like a city, a war-ravaged one, but still a city. Hargeisa has little to no infrastructure. It's just a series of randomly placed, low rise buildings next to one another with ugly architecture.

Hargeisa has no infrusturcture, an low rise buildings, next to one another.
So how comes hargeisa has the tallest building in somalia, recently opened by Dhahabshiil, hargeisa has malls, hargeisa has the biggest hotels in the somali peninsula...
Hargeisa is miles ahead of war torn xamar, xamar glory days are over. Even since the war xamar has being going backward, while Hargeisa has been built from scratch at a rate never seen anywhere before. Hargeisa as it all, you can even find all the products that you would find in europe and america in there. From baby food and clothes, to a mcdonalds...
And things would only get better inshallah. Imagine Hargeisa in 10 years time.
