This study examines the spatial and sociocultural dimensions of begging in Nigerian cities. This is with a view to identifying and comparing the circumstances surrounding the phenomenon in cities of different sociocultural background and varying urbanization correlates, and using same as a basis for recommending appropriate control measures against begging in Nigerian cities. The study reveals that incidence of begging varies significantly with city and location within city.It has a relationship with the way and manner urban fabric or land uses are organized.It also reveals that most people beg for alms as a result of poverty and/or destitution, while considerable proportions of beggars are wanderers and criminals that pretend as beggars. More so, while about 47.68% of beggars are handicapped, more than half are ablebodied; this situation has a negative implication for the city economy. Lastly, sociocultural variables are observed as having influence on the incidence of begging in the society. The study, therefore, recommends certain socioeconomic, policy and legal measures to address the menace.
