life in al khafji
posted by Ibrahim ~ in Kuwait forum
Hi S T
If you will be staying at Al Khafji area (KSA). the life expenses will be much cheaper than Kuwait, because the rental, school and grocery expenses is very less than Kuwait, but at Al Khafji area, there is only one school that provide English language speaking option, it recently opened for oil company workers. the good thing about this school is that each class has no more than 6 students.for more information check www.wsi-ksa.com
Regarding the life expenses and rental prices, I checked the prices through a friend staying in Al Khafji. the building structure mostly in Al Khafji area is no more than 3 floors, the windows design size is very small (70x60) for privacy reasons. also because all women/girls wiring hejab! all women should wear a hijab as a mandatory by sharia-law. for this reason or another, the place is very safe! more than what you think.. :)
the rental prices for an apartment 3 bedrooms the price starts for 90 K.D. approx 1165 Saudi Arabia Riyal (S.A.R.) monthly installment. for 2 bedroom 70 K.D. equivalent 900 S.A.R. monthly.. for more information u can call a real estate agent. they'll help you with it so much.
Moreover, the daily activities other than work in Al Khafji is some how limited. there is some beautiful garden and national park, small shopping mall's and the sea side is very nice and clean. but the entertainment place's are very much limited comparing to Kuwait.
A lot to say about Al Khafji......
have a good day, cheers
