For anyone considering moving to Al Khor, Qatar, I made this video in Sep 2013 to give you a better idea of what to expect, This is not a video of Al Khor community, but of Al Khor Town. Al Khor community is a complex located around 5-10 minutes away and is only available to Ras-gas and Qatar-gas permanent employees. You cannot access any of their facilities unless you know people living in the compound, which is very annoying as it has alot to offer! Al Khor town is located 40km north of Doha, offering a safe environment full of culture and history but rapidly becoming more modern. It is very much unfinished with construction works taking place everywhere! Al Khor currently lacks any social nightlife or good restaurants/bars, so you will probably find yourself travelling 25min to Doha for that, however it does offer a wide range of sports clubs, 3G pitches, a new gym (fitness first) and a new shopping mall (Lulu Hypermarket) which supplies all the basics. There is also a beach and local fish market but I personally wouldn't rate it. Majority of the population here are male asian workers with europeans being the minority. In a few years this town will have much more to offer in terms of a social life and by 2022 will be a top tourist attraction but for now I would recommend this place only for families or married individuals who are here to work. I hope this helps...
