Personally Abu Dhabi for work life balance. Much less hectic and traffic than dubai also there is more of a community in Ad as it is more family orientated. Also usually salaries are higher in Abu Dhabi as alot of government jobs are based there. Abu Dhabi is so peaceful and is the safest city in the world

Absolutely love Dubai. I’m moving there soon from South Africa and I can’t wait…. I didn’t feel a connection to Abu Dhabi so I wouldn’t want to live there. I also have a bias towards Dubai because I have loved ones there… Thanks for a short and to the point video lol!

Is there really THAT MANY tourists in dubai? It seems like Abu Dhabi is everything dubai is without the tourists but also it’s missing certain things or pleasures form dubai

[fahddhawi]

Just to clarify what your friend said we have the Careem app here too 😂. And for finishing with apartments depends on the developers I've seen some really well done in that price range.

I think it’s not fair to compare anywhere in the gulf to Dubai, since each area serves a unique purpose.

The areas I am looking to move to in the UAE are Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Qatar, and Oman. The thing I have to touch on is when you lived there (aka Dubai as I asume you're in South Afican now, I'm not sure) where on earth do you get your hair done? My hair is natural so I will need to get it braided. My other main concern is church. However, I will figure that out when and if I can make the move a reality. I really enjoyed Abu Dhabi although I wasn't there for very long, however, I did prefer it to Dubai I must say. I am a lot more low key.

We have extremely versatile roles of Program Managers and have worked in Consulting, Accounting and Finance worlds. Looking for some guidance/direction on what to go towards.

Abu Dhabi has much more to do then Dubai. The Bars and clubs in Abu Dhabi are in those glass towers all around you and not on street level as in Dubai. You can be in a Epic nightclub in Abu Dhabi on the 50th Floor. There's only one difference between Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Abu Dhabi has more classy clubs then DXB and less prostitution',
