What Residents say about Ras Al Khor
Ras Al Khor Industrial 1
Anonymous
Great spot for logistics and storage. Close to main highways and reasonably priced warehouses. Busy traffic and some noise at times, but overall very convenient for running daily operations.
Samari Residences
Anonymous
Samari Residences offers large apartments at good prices and a calm, family-oriented atmosphere. The area is well-maintained and safe for kids, with friendly staff and decent facilities. Only drawback is limited nearby shops and traffic during peak hours.
Wasl Green Park
aisha
We’ve been living in Wasl Green Park for over a year as a family of four, and it’s been a really good experience overall. Spacious apartments, quick maintenance, and a safe, peaceful environment. Perfect for families on a budget. Kids love the pool and play areas - only downside is limited guest parking.
