    Dubai is a city that is glamorized for its sunshine, luxurious lifestyle, and of course 0% income tax
    But as someone who moved to Dubai a year ago and who actually lives here full-time, I can tell you that there are many things that people who move here should consider before making the move.

    I actually lived two years in dxb as a pedestrian and actually super enjoyed it cos it kept me fit and part of my community and I would walk around in August for example just like any other time of year no issue. And then I lived the other years as a full blown driver, way far out in these developments, driving wide and far around the city. You can live in the right areas that facilitate your choice, you can live walk to all and everything you need in yr local area and the rest of the time rely on public transport. You just have to choose your area wisely and know which ones are which. There are car centric suburban areas and inner city pedestrian areas. You 100 percent can definitely have both just choose what you want and can afford. Amazing.

    Thank you so much for the videos about Dubai. Super Informative. One thing that helps a lot is to segment the areas that expats can work by major and salary. This helps a lot to understand what areas (specially in tech) are in demand, and whats the range of income so that they can compare with current situation and decide.

    Ive been living in Dubai for 12 years. I live in palm Jumeirah. Dubai is not walkable, especially in the spring/summer months. It is impossible to walk anywhere, simply it’s too hot. Before moving to Dubai, i lived in L.A CA you can’t compare these two cities.

    Cool video! Dubai is by far the Leat walkable place I’ve ever been too (am I from London though, so that’s definitely why I think that) 😂😂

    What about the language? Is Arabic necessary? Do you speak it or are you learning it yourself?

      English, Arabic, and Farsi are the most common language.
      UAE use to be Iran (Persia) and recently, was under British "management".
      Most of the peoples that you think are Arabic, are in fact coming from Iran. They speak both perfectly Arabic and Farsi.

    Dubai is now overcrowded, over hyped city, traffic jams in downtown, expensive, good if you are making good money, high rents, real estate is expensive, very hot humid summers. Its a hype that everything is rosy here. Remember the other side of the pasture is not always green. Do your homework before you move here. For a short holiday its ok. If you want to live here long time you should be making good money. I would say Dubai is for the rich

      They should make layered counties to solve the overcrowding. Like ground level will be a different county, and then there’s a whole landscape on level 1/2/etc which are connected to all the buildings. Would be sick
