Hi, we are staying in Ghoroob since 6 years, and we like the community here. You can meet other families and the kids can play together in the playground. I also work in DAFZA so it's close to my office and close to schools in Mirdif. However.... with Empower coming on and requesting the tenants to pay demand charges for the AC even during those months when we don't even turn on the AC, it is getting unreasonably expensive. We have friends (and colleagues) in DSO and as per their feedback it is really nice there, so we will be probably considering to move there next year. Hope there will be some other feedback here about DSO! Good luck! Thank you for your response Pdorci. I do wish we get some more responses here about Dubai Silicon Oasis.

I am in the relocation process now, and in my 'soft landing' period. My company uses Sirva, not sure about the price or if they deal with individuals, but they have been very good so far. Thank you womanengineer! i will check Sirva out. Good luck to you!

Thank You ladies for your responses. It definitely gives me a starting point. At the moment, only my husband has work offer. I am still looking for one. Is getting a work permit super important before landing or if theres a position and my qualification matches the company applies for work permit? Also, considering the package that my husband is being offered, is it critical to negotiate medical for all the family members? TIA

Hello wonderful people, We will be moving from Singapore (after 10 years of living) to Dubai with two children. While we are still figuring out the comparative cost of living in Dubai, we are thinking of choosing an area to live closer to the school. Do the Springs and the Meadows area have good schools? looking at British curriculum or Indian curriculum at the moment. How is Mirdif in comparison? Does living in villa or a town-house complete take away the option of community living? In Dubai, do schools with vacancies accept children mid-term? Appreciate all the guidance and direction for choosing localities and school selection.
