Dear friend, I am living at MIC. Housing is very neat and classy. But if you are getting the second option ,stick to that; cos always money matter!!s.As our friend told above you can save your entire salary !So welcome to MIC
With this salary you can survive easily. Option -2 is better , to get 7500 house allowance. One of my friend living in Wakra(just 10 min drive from mesaieed), he is paying 4000 for 02 bed room home. You can easily get appartment in 3000-4000 riyals. Since mesaieed is industrial city, people prefer wakra for living. Even at mesaieed you can get 02 bed rooms apparment in similar rates. With 7500 you can easily spend complete month including housing and grocerry. Here petrol cost 1 riyal / liter, therefore, driving is not issue. cars are cheap due to no taxes.
another option from company is if furnished accomodation is not provided, then company will pay QR 7500/- p.m. for house rent. Is this amount enough for house rent of a furnished appartment of 2 rooms in Messaid?
