The UAE
What is a typical expat home or apartment like in UAE?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in UAE is like. They answered...
"Villa; no. Most live in apartments or townhouses; some live in villas (equivalent to a single family house)," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Abu Dhabi, UAE.
"Expat homes and apartments in the UAE tend to be luxurious and modern, with high-end amenities such as swimming pools, gyms, and spas. Many expats choose to live in villas or townhouses, which offer more space and privacy than apartments. Expat homes and apartments are often located in gated communities, providing a safe and secure environment. Many expats also enjoy the convenience of living close to shopping malls, restaurants, and other amenities," commented one expat who made the move to UAE.
