I will be living in Abha. My job will be located at King Khalid University. Where do people recommend to live? furnished or non? apartment or shared? Is it expensive?

??? ????

Well...please forgive my being blunt, but I want to provide you with the most accurate and helpful information.

In regards to places to live....Are you married or single...some places will only rent to families.

How long are you planning on staying....the will make the difference between furnished or non....

Muslim or not...this may make a difference in the prices...not a big difference (but its better to have someone haggle on your behalf), unless you speak Arabic...

And...by shared...do you mean with other teachers....if thats the case..then the best bet will be to just wait until you meet your co-workers (me being one of them..lol) and see who's compatible.
