dammam is reasonably cheaper in terms of cost of living than khobar, so it should be fine for you and your family:)

welcome to saudi. cost of living is slightly same if compare with Malaysia. Petrol, car very2 cheaper compare with malaysia but accomodation a bit expensive. I just arrived here (Jubail) for about 5 month. I think got Malaysian also in Dammam. But in Jubail we have big of Malaysian community here. More than 300 persons (not including family) working in Jubail.
