response to question

• I have been living in Doha for the last 6 years and in process of relocation so let me tell you there is No big difference between the two Both are expensive as hell but I think minor differences here and there lets take it one by one:
  
  Rentals: Doha is notorious for its expensive low quality acoomodations Dubai quality is much better but almost same price. Bottom line if the company isnt giving you a house or an allowance for that dont come to doha. Good 3 bedrooms are hard to find for less than 12 K Dubai quality way much better. Have seen apartments with no kitchen go for 60 K a year!!
  
  Schools: Have no children but i hear schools here more expensive in Doha than dubai. Good ones 30K+ a year per child
  
  Food and expenses: Doha more expensive for sure. my wife got shocked on a recent trip to dubai how things are cheap there. We have biggest inflation in the region more than 17% official Dubai almost 14%.
  
  Why some people think that Doha is cheaper is frankly there is nothing to do or spend it is very boring compared to Dubai so you can very much control your spending. and doha is much more morally suitable for children
  
  Both countries are expensive the best place to live in is Oman but make your move there very soon since they have started to increase rentals like hell there too :>
