that all depends on where your hubbies office is and what your budget is for accomodation

He will be working in Jebel Ali Free Zone. I am still waiting to find out about the budget we will be allowed!!

so you will be looking at Al Barsha, Springs, Meadows and the Lakes area. Have they given no inclination at all as to what they are offering? getting the right package is the most important part of relocating

great place to live, just as long as you have got a good package everything else will slip into place. Make sure you get housing, education, medical return flights etc and a decent salary and you will be very happy here. It isn't the city of gold as most people expect but it aint a bad place to live. The weather is a huge bonus for me coming from the UK.
