Doha ranks 12th followed by Abu Dhabi (15th), Manama (21st), Muscat (28th) and Dubai (34th).
According to the report, the cities are among the top 25 worldwide for getting settled, and expats generally value the safety as well as the availability and affordability of housing.
The Expat City Ranking is based on the annual Expat Insider survey carried out by InterNations, with more than
20,000 respondents in 2019. This was one of the most extensive surveys about living and working abroad.
In 2019, 82 cities around the globe were analysed in the survey, offering in-depth information about five areas of expat life: Quality of Urban Living, Getting Settled, Urban Work Life, Finance & Housing and Local Cost of Living.
This year’s biggest winner, Doha gains 38 places to become the best GCC city overall, ranking 12th out of 82 cities in the Expat City Ranking 2019. Qatar’s capital has moved rapidly up the ranks, performing best in the Finance & Housing (10th), Getting Settled (22nd), and Urban Work Life (25th) Indices.
Doha gained 31 ranks, with 70 percent of expats now satisfied with their job in general, which is both above the global average in 2019 (64%) and the share for Doha in 2018 (59%).
