Pl Provide the information on the cost of living in dubai for a family of 3 adults?

Hello All,

Good evening everybody,
I signed an employment in dubai and offered 11K AED per month, We are three, myself, wife and mother from india.

Before making the bold step to fly to dubai, just clearly wanted to know whether this offer is good, sufficient or a bad one.

Pl provide info for the following things:
1. Cost of a simple house to get on rent for 3 ppl in Sharjah? Does the cost include/exclude any other possible charges?
2. Food, we are pure vegiterians, if am a normal diet person, wt wd be the cost per person?
3. Transport, heard its better to stay SHARJAH, travel from there to my duabi office, Is there any train/bus facility, if so wt wd be the possible cost of train/bus pass per month?
4. Kindly let me know the other expenses that you have experienced such as internet, taxi to outdoor/shopping, etc?
5. How about the climate in dubai and sharjah?
6. How safe is staying with family in sharjah and working at dubai?

Any other possible information...
Raj

Dear, please find the answers as of my knowledge:
1. For sharing accomodation, you can have a room + bath+kitchen facility at 20-30K per annum. If you go for studio/1BHK it wil cost around 35-50K per annum, day by day the rent is increasing here. Sharing, the cost will include Water+Electricity, For a separate flat, the charges will be around 200AED pm depends on your usage of electricity.
2.Food, ofcourse the rate will be 500 AED - AED 1000 depends on your use. (for an ordinary restaurant you can have lunch at AED5-10, if you are cooking, it will be less only.
3.Bus / Taxi Facility is there from/to sharja-dubai, metro is coming soon. bus pass(i dont have any idea, but in abu dhabi it is there) normal cost will be AED 5 one way in bus. It also depends the location you are staying in sharjah (accesibility by bus). Taxi will be costlier.
4.Internet cafes will charge AED3-5 per hour, Etisalat Internet connection will cost AED440 first time and 149 per month. taxi rates in dubai starts a min from AED 4.
5.Climate is horrible (humidity is high) & evening it will be ok, Also the coming months will be summer here (July/Aug/Sep) then it will get into other side by dec (coolest)
6.It is 100% safe... in UAE you can enjoy the safety and security of family also a good working atmosphere.

Dubai family stay is not easy for a salary package of 11K pm. But Sharjah is OK.
Hope this will be enough for you... now...
Enjoy the stay over here in Sharjah/Dubai... All the best
Thx
