Saudi Arabia
What do I need to know before retiring in Saudi Arabia?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Saudi Arabia, they said...
"You will have great fun. Just make sure you get housed on Arabian Homes or The Cove. Arabian Homes is an open compound, a bit out in the sticks (17Km from Royal COmmission) and is a mature compound i.e. a bit faded. The Cove is westerners only, in the Royal Commission and is brand-new. But it's very popular and not easy to get into. May be a waiting list," said another expat in Yanbu, Saudi Arabia.
"Be open minded, expect little, and keep in mind what you're here for; be it the money or quality family time," wrote a member who made the move to Khamis Mushayt, Saudi Arabia.
