If you get that for your housing allowance go for it. Personally I hate attempting to park in the city, there are at least two hotels/clubs nearby as well as schools.
Plenty of room for the kids to play easily supervised (no not in the desert, in the compound although the scope it opens up for R/C and quad bikes is great)
And oh so quiet....
Each to their own, just hope you dont end up being moved from your expensive town accom into Musafah so the owners can make more $$$. Then maybe the "desert" might seem really nice
Happy new year!
