Take a chance or not? Ajman vs Dubai

patsca

Hi everyone, I’m Italian and I’m currently considering possible job options in the UAE, mainly around Ajman/Dubai.


I would like to understand what minimum monthly salary/package would realistically be needed for one adult and a teenage son to live comfortably, not luxuriously, but with a good quality of life.


Ideally, I would be looking for:


- nice accommodation in a safe/good area, possibly a small house or townhouse rather than a crowded high-rise;

-Good international secondary school

- decent social life and expat community;

- transport, daily expenses and school-related costs;

What salary range would you consider realistic for this kind of lifestyle in Ajman vs Dubai?


I would really appreciate honest feedback from people living there.
