Dear, As you have been in saudi arabia for such long time, you should have already known the cost of living here. For daily expenses like groceries every where its the same so you wont feel any different in Riyadh or another city. How ever the only difference would be for your accommodation. I could sure say you could find different accommodations with different price list. 1BR from 12-20K, 2BR from 14-25K and 3BR from 18-30K etc, mostly type and location sure matters.
