There is another problem with workers living here on single status and that is they cannot live at accommodations reserved for families or sometimes even in the vicinity of such apartments. In my area, a couple of years back a Sudanese working for the baladiya had workers vacate an independent apartment 200 meters meters away across the road with his house not even being opposite to the apartment simply because of his eerie feeling about his family's safety! The unusual part is that the entire street is lined with other houses with families and "bachelors" living opposite each other across the road and there has never been any issues.
