The UAE named the most desirable country to live in
This is the 12th consecutive year that the UAE has made it on the list…
It’s no surprise that the UAE is many people’s first choice when it comes to long-term residency due to the quality of living, world-class infrastructure and attractions that the country offers.
Earlier this year, the country ranked sixth as the best place to live for expats and Dubai was among the top cities to work in, in 2021. And now, a new study has found the nation to be the most desirable place to live in.
The annual ASDA’A BCW Arab Youth Survey – the largest study of the Arab world, found that UAE was most likely to be the top choice to live in for 24 per cent of Arab youth.
