What is the name of the city or town that you are reporting on?

Al Khobar

If a friend of yours was thinking of moving to this city or town from far away, what other advice would you give them.

Expats considering retiring in Al Khobar should be aware that the country is a Muslim-majority nation and that Islamic law is strictly enforced. Expats should also be aware that the country has a very conservative culture and that women are expected to dress modestly and adhere to certain social norms. Additionally, expats should be aware that the cost of living in Al Khobar is relatively high, and that the city is not particularly well-known for its nightlife or entertainment options. Finally, expats should be aware that the city is located in a desert climate, and that temperatures can reach extreme highs during the summer months.
