Buikwe is a district located in the Central Region of Uganda. It was created in 2010 by splitting off from the larger Mukono District. The district headquarters are found in the town of Buikwe, which serves as a central hub for administration and commerce in the area. Buikwe is known for its diverse landscapes, as well as its proximity to Lake Victoria, which provides resources and recreational opportunities for the local population.
The district is predominantly rural, with agriculture being the mainstay of the economy. Crops such as maize, cassava, and bananas are commonly grown, while fishing and aquaculture are also significant activities due to the lake's influence. The local communities often engage in small-scale trading and businesses to diversify their income sources within the district.
