Small fish in a big pond by nemo37

I have been living in Dallas for 5 weeks now and perhaps the reality of it all has finally settled in. I have been focusing so hard on settling my 2 kids into Elementary and Middle School, trying to make sense of all the new school information (very ...

Hi, all compound residents, We have noticed that there are quite a bit of vacant houses/apartments in our compound (Arabian Homes). We suspect that it's because of 'saudilisation'. Is it the same in the compounds you stay? Any chance ...
