I am considering a proposition to shift to Bahrain, the offer is USD 7000 per month + benefits. I have asked for more details about the benefits. We are a three member family consisting of my wife, my son who is studying abroad and myself.
We would like to lead an upper middle class life, do let me know the savings potential if any with the offer that has been made.
Please help me know about the rentals, Car and other expenses etc in Bahrain.
Thank you so much for all the help.

Shri.

Please have a look at the cost of living thread which should answer a lot of your questions. Also the Definitive Guide to Bahrain which also answers a lot of your questions.

7000USD is approximately 2600BHD.

As I am sure you can appreciate we get a lot of questions like yours hence the 2 pinned posts in order to reduce the amount of duplication on the board! Once you have read through them please come back to us with any questions you still have.

All the best
