So I am in the process of finishing up my contracting process and was told that for housing that they are working on obtaining it for me (not guarenteed) or I would be given around 80,000 SAR. Am I wasting my time looking in a compound for that price range?

I don't think you will get on a compound for that your best bet is Seder village or rancho village FAL compound. Are you bringing your family out

Still waiting to hear back on the final word for my contract. One time they tell me the will set up a home in the compound for me, and the other time they say they will provide an allowance. I think I have just about decided that if they only give me 80K-90K allowance that I may just pay the extra to be at a compound anyway.

usually Compound price is higher than 80,000 SAR/annum.

Try to Google compound + Saudi Arabia.
