High cost of living

However the not so good part of living in Dubai is the cost of living which is very high. The rental rates are sky rocketing. There were times when companies used to lure staff to Dubai with allowances for all sorts of things, however since too many people are competing for jobs the employers no longer bother offering such incentives. Dubai’s population is the fastest growing in the world. It is recognized as the commercial and tourism capital of the UAE and is regarded as one of the most sophisticated cosmopolitan cities in the world. It is an Arab Muslim society with the fastest growing foreign population.

If you are moving in with your family, you need to find out about the education system as there are few restrictions. The state of health care system provided in Dubai is fantastic. The private and the public health care offered is first class. The school fees in Dubai are exuberant and not likely to reduce because the international schools that are there have a captive audience. The humidity can reach up to 80% which makes living in Dubai unpleasant. There is no more medical cover or educational allowances by most of the companies. If you want to work in Dubai it is best t get a job before you come as you can get a better financial deal and more attractive financial package than if you find work locally.
