The ongoing rise in urban development has resulted in a surge in human activities, which has contributed to pollution, including the presence of potentially harmful elements. The study aims to evaluate the physicochemical parameters and trace elements (TEs) levels in top soil from selected communities in Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria. Five (5) composite soil samples were collected from five selected communities (Asipa, Lisa, Efuye, Ilarun and Dangbogboru) in Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria. The physicochemical analysis and TE estimation were performed using standard methods. The results revealed that all the investigated physicochemical parameters (soil moisture %, Bulk Density, % porosity, organic carbon and matter %, sand, clay and silt %, sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium level), including the trace element such as Copper (Cu), Manganese (Mn), Zinc (Zn), Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd) and Cobalt (Co) concentrations comply with European Union standards. Consequently, it can be concluded that there was no trace element pollution in the soil at the time of the study.
