Karuri is a town in Kiambu County. The town hosts a town council.

It covers an area of 46 km2. with a population of 194,342 (2019 census). The council's main town, Karuri, was established as a meeting centre in the pre-colonial era where Kikuyu paramount chiefs would meet for deliberations. The town derives its name from the principal chief Karuri wa Gakure who would travel from Tuthu in the slopes of Aberdare Range to meet his counterparts like Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu.
