Hello All, I am from Chennai and glad to be a member of this site. My husband and I will be moving to Khobar in few months. I would like to clarify a few things. 1. Is compound living safer/better than apartment? What will be the approximate rent of a single bedroom house in a compound? Is there any specific area where tamilians/south indians live? 2. What will be the monthly cost of living for two? 3. What are the entertainment options nearby? 4. Are there agents available for house hunting? 5. Are women allowed to go out alone to nearby supermarkets/shops? 6. Is abaya compulsory in all places? How about head scarf? 7. Are apartments available with furnishing ( TV, washing machine, furnished kitchen,etc)? Are all kitchen appliances available in nearby malls? Is there anything specific which we would require to carry with us from India? Looking forward to your help on this Cheers, Nithya
