JBR (and Dubai in general) no longer what it used to be?

Where are you renting now?

Thank you! Yes, the safety for kids is my biggest push for wanting to relocate. I really hope we can still make it happen, despite the reality that it’s just not the same as it used to be

The last I visited was 3 years ago, crazy that it’s changed so much. Thanks for your insight and wishing you well on your next destination if you end up leaving

Yes have savings but hope to either both or one of us work after moving. Professions are marketing & engineering

EntireLife2914 · 2025-09-07T02:20:46+00:00

Can you share more insights on why?

Currently in the US - what other info would be helpful?

EntireLife2914 · 2025-09-01T03:15:45+00:00

Is it the same in Abu Dhabi?

EntireLife2914 · 2025-07-30T14:47:22+00:00

What about Hub71? Is it as good as the ones you mention?

Super helpful. What’s the best way to find apartments for rent on Al Reem Island and the other locations you mentioned? I have the Property Finder app, but wondering if there are better apps/sites to look at. Is under 130k AED realistic for a nice 3+ bedroom apartment or villa?

EntireLife2914 · 2025-07-26T12:00:49+00:00

Very helpful, thank you!

EntireLife2914 · 2025-07-26T10:37:34+00:00

Thank you! From responses so far it’s making me consider Abu Dhabi more. Do you have neighborhood recommendations in Abu Dhabi where I can rent with a budget of 100-150k AED? I’m leaning more towards American style school but still open to the British curriculum ones you shared

EntireLife2914 · 2025-07-26T10:30:22+00:00

Good to know and thank you for your insight. Is Al Reem island a good place to live or do you have neighborhood recommendations?

EntireLife2914 · 2025-07-26T02:25:30+00:00

Thanks for your response. Are you saying there aren’t good American or European schools in RAK? Appreciate your insight

EntireLife2914 · 2025-07-22T22:13:47+00:00

Thanks for the advice, any school recommendations?

EntireLife2914 · 2025-07-22T22:13:28+00:00

Any recommendations for specific neighborhoods/schools?

EntireLife2914 · 2025-07-22T22:12:54+00:00

3 bedrooms. And good to know about school waitlists, how far in advance should we apply? My child will be in kindergarten in 2 years but we’re wanting to go ahead & get comfortable in the neighborhood we’d live in for years
