What do I need to know before retiring in Taif?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Taif, they said...

"Before retiring in Taif, expats should be aware that the city is located in a desert climate, with hot summers and mild winters. It is important to be aware of the local laws and customs, as well as the dress code for women, which requires them to cover their hair and body. Expats should also be aware that the city is a conservative one, and that alcohol and pork are not available. Additionally, it is important to research the healthcare system in the city, as well as the availability of international schools for expat children. Finally, expats should be aware that the cost of living in Taif is relatively low, making it an attractive option for retirees," wrote a member who made the move to Taif, Saudi Arabia.
