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.
Thanks for the video Tuomas. I was just searching for this topic an hour ago and here I get the perfect recommendation. Planning to move from UK to setup my own business soon
I want to rent a condo furnished for three months. I'm retired and don't want to deal with Mr. Snow from December to March. Like to stay somewhat central will not be driving. Any suggestions?
Nice video, Toumas. I heard that one day Dubai will be underwater as it is a man made iceland. Recent floods is an example that things can go wrong? what are your thoughts on this? Thanks
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
@kayn6858 60k absolute minimum. 100k is ok. better to have at least 500k in reserves before going there with a 50k salary. Lower than that, do not do it if you're not a highly sought after software engineer.
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

Great video, thank you :)
Very nice video, Tuomas! I am going to move to Dubai in a few weeks
Super!
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) 😂😂
It’s walkable if you are in Marina/Downtown
So do you have a uae company how does that work
That’s my question too.
I want to rent a condo furnished for three months. I'm retired and don't want to deal with Mr. Snow from December to March. Like to stay somewhat central will not be driving. Any suggestions?

what🤣
What about the language? Is Arabic necessary? Do you speak it or are you learning it yourself?
no
English, Arabic, and Farsi are the most common language.

1m per year @kayn6858

@kayn6858More like USD 200k per year for a family of four.

Sorry, Dubai ain't humid nope not compared to really humid places. Not buying that description
Iv lived there for 34 years and I very well know how racist the place is😊
Racist to who?
Consider…..why you don’t have enough money sucks to be you!
