Al Khor - Post Report Question and Answers

What is your housing like? What are typical housing sizes, locations, and commute times for expatriates?

We live in a lovely large 4 bedroom villa with a large garden. Depending on seniority, family size, employer and luck you may be in a two or three bedroom apartment or a house of different age and size. Transit housing is pretty basic, but comfortable, depending on your standards. The community has a very good maintenance service and I am on pretty good terms with a fair number of the guys due to regular plumbing, electrical, and maintenance issues. My husband works at Ras Laffan which is about 35 minutes away, but can take up to 90 minutes when there are security issues. He also works in Doha which is about 1 hour away - from one end of Doha to the other can take a long time. - Feb 2007
