HI Everyone,

i'd like some feedback on working and living in Port Said and Ismailia.
what are the living costs?
what is the average of a villa or flat for sale?
is it easy to find work? are there any western companies there?
are there any good hospitals?
what are the best neighbourhoods to live in? quiet and safe

thanks,
inji
