Expats Prefer Sharing Apartments in Dubai



The city of Dubai can be called as unique in many regards but the thing that makes it stand out among all the cities is that the expat population in Dubai is far more than its local population. According to the estimates 83% of its total resident population is from other parts of the world and the biggest community is from India. The Pakistanis come second and not far behind are the Bengalis and Sri Lankans. All these people come here to find jobs and that is why apartments for rent in Dubai are always in demand. The expat population is increasing day-by-day and the demand is also directly proportional to this influx of people.
One of the major issues that the expats in the city normally have is that they live without families here. Their families live in the home countries and the reason behind that is that the city is quite expensive and keeping the family along with them is an expensive thing to do. With families back home, they can earn enough for themselves and because of fewer expenses in the home countries that are normally the South Asian countries, the families can live with a respectable standard of life. On the other hand the person living in Dubai city gets more time for work as he does not have to look after the family and thus can earn more.
According to the experts at Bayut.com, the expatriates who live here in Dubai are better off sharing their apartments with friends or colleagues. The reason for that is quite simple. It is extremely difficult to manage the home without a partner while the colleagues normally have same issues and same interests, so they can develop a better understanding with each other. At the same time, by sharing rooms, they share the rent as well which can be quite expensive while living alone. The Dubai rent section is widely used by the users which shows the trend in the market as well.
