1 Bajuni family(Funnily enough the Baajuni family speak better Somali than most of the other Somalis specially the mother and the kids)
3 Waceysle families
2 Hawiye Yaryar families(not sure what tribe they are but I'm sure they're not Abgal or HG and they're from Mog)
2 Habargidir families
1 Habarjeclo family
1 Jareerweyne family
2 Jabuuti families(1 gadaburursi, the other I'm not sure of)
2 light Skin Rahanweyn families(I'm guessing they've got Yemeni blood or been assimilated by Rahanweyn nevertheless they're rahanweyn)
5 Dark skin Rahanweyn families(So 7 Rahanweyn families altogether)
5 Xamari families(I'm guessing some are second or first generation Yemenis)
8 Ashraaf families(Ashraaf aren't like other light skin Somalis, they stick to their qabiils)
2 Swahili families(Swahili are no different than Somalis in culture)
1 Sheikhal family(from jigjiga and galbeed, then moved to Saudi then here)
1 Tunni family(they could counted as D&M or Barawani)
And my family which is MJ(I'm geussing the only Darod family in the ends but others could be lurking in the background, a different Somali family pops up everyday)

This census is about 3 years old before I started uni.

lol HJ'S are very hard to find outside Somali territory... they mostly cluster together.

I guess your lucky to experience 1hj family....they pretty rare.

Somali qabiil are not categorized as light skin and dark skin, get the hell out of here with that African American way of measuring ancestries and Qabiils.

Qabiils are Qabiils no mater how they look

Mate I didn't mean it like the way african americans do, just giving people deeper observations like how I used subclans(Waceysle) instead of qabiils(Abgaal).

A reer waqooyi guy get on a bus then sees a beautiful xalimo sitting at the back.
He goes over and then park right next to her.
they strike up a conversation and the question of qabil come up.

the girls says that she is Baajun.
the guy is taken aback by the response, then says to her,..
walaal ciyaarta iga da ee ii sheg cidaad tahay.
the girl repeats again Baajun.
Now his shocked then goes on to say..
adigo walaal Ilaahay quruxda ku siiyay maxaad isku habaareysa
By now the girl is really upset and leaves him sitting there to go somewhere esle. away from this nut case.

Now the reer waqooyi guy is confused and doesn't know what to make of it.

reer waqooyigu Baajun waxay u yaqaanan cay. even me i always heard reer hargeysa calling someone..aar bal baajuntan eeg.

he was later told that there is a clan called Baajun.

Loool. People from Waqooyi and Bari do not know that Somaalida waa dad multicultural ah. Any person can come, integrate, accept the religion and culture and be accepted as Somali. Like Mujaahid Al-Amriki ra was accepted into the Rahanweyn clan.
