Tribe owns a housing society in DRC location (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kinshasa

'drc location' is the definition.
(capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo)

'tribe owns a housing society' is the wordplay.
'tribe' becomes 'kin' (synonyms).
'owns' becomes 'has' ('have' can be a synonym of 'own').
'housing' indicates putting letters inside.
'society' becomes 's' (common abbreviation in names of organisations).
'kin'+'has'+'a'='kinhasa'
'kinhasa' placed around 's' is 'KINSHASA'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for kinshasa that I've seen before include "Capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo" , "Congolese capital" , "Congolese port" , "Capital of Dem Rep of the Congo" , "Shank is a strange African city" .)
