Community
We’re considering moving to either Dubai or Bahrain in just over a year but I have some questions...
We’ve previously lived in Bahrain and I grew up in KSA. Bahrain has a very convenient social arena, a community that’s easy to slot into and we loved that as did our son. We were members of the Dilmun Club and went there most weekends. We really miss it.
Is there anything like that in Dubai or are people more likely to socialise at one another’s homes? If there are similar set ups are they extortionate? Rough membership fees and info about what they’re like would be appreciated.
Also In Bahrain we lived on a compound but I didn’t find the community spirit there to be as nice as in Saudi. Perhaps because there aren’t clubs there like in Bahrain so your compound is like your family. However it didn’t matter because we socialised outside of the compound.
Is compound living rare in Dubai?
I’ve read a fair bit online but I’d love the perspective of actual people...thanks.
