Accommodation in Riyadh

Hey Canada, did you manage to check out the guide (to the left of this blog page) there is info there about accommodation.  Basically ensure the new employers provide adequate housing allowance for you, a family of 4 will need approx 240,000 SR for a 3/4 bed villa on a compound (they are expensive) but the facilities of swimming pools, restaurant, shop, dry cleaners, kids play areas, skate parks, gym, limo's for wives to use, beauty salon etc and security in & out of compound make it important.  American school, British School have reached capacity so advanced communication with the schools will be critical to suss out the situation for your children.  Basically, make no assumptions about anything here or you will be very surprised and not all surprises are nice ones.  Do you research and all will be well.
