Why come here for no job security (and there isn't any for any expat in this part of the world), you don't mention schooling allowance (a big expense), or medical (also a big expense if you don't have insurance - especially if it's something that means you, the children, or your husband have to leave the country for treatment or is a long term disability).
You need to do a LOT more research - you mentioned something about religion being one of the deciding factors - IMHO, it should be one of the least - you can practice your religion nearly anywhere in the world (including the US) without the possible (and dire) financial risks you run as an expat.
