Areas to live.

A fairly good and reasonable question, in my view.

Generally most areas in Bahrain have a mixed demography.

Some of the nicer and convenient areas to live are Juffair, Adliya, Zinj, Saar, Seef ...

Thanks for taking the time to answer.
I have heard about Juffair before.
Tubil (if spelt right) will be my work base and I was also unsure if the area was good to live in.

Tubli is alright to live. Its a mixed residential and commercial area.

I know a few people living there. Its just a little "off the beaten track".

I would not live in Tubli. I went to view the accommodation there and even though the villas looked nice and had all the facilities for a good price, it is where the sewage works is and the smell was horrible. Not like the UK where the odor has to be contained so that surrounding areas do not suffer. If you think that you have a strong stomach and think the smell will not bother you then it is a good area to live. If you are bringing your family Saar/Janabiya is probably your best place, Juffair is where all the restaurants bars and clubs are so not the best for children to be exposed to but great if your a bachelor. Seef is a nice area but a bit more expensive, Zinj as already said could be a good option as it is close to Tubli and you will not get the smell. (if the wind allows) Hope this helps, any questions just ask
