Dhahran - Post Report Question and Answers

Would someone with physical disabilities have difficulties living in this city?

Yes. - Apr 2016


Yes. The Consulate bathrooms would be inaccessible for anyone who could not walk up/down stairs. - Jul 2015


There are some places that aren't quite as developed as we are used to but I have noticed elevators and ramps in most large facilities. Therefore, I don't think it would be too difficult depending on the disability. - Jun 2015


The lack of elevators, ramps, and sidewalks makes it very difficult for someone with disabilities to live here. - Oct 2012


A lot. It's hard enough for an able bodied person to cross the road without getting run down by a vehicle. Most buildings do have elevators though - but the consulate is not 100% accessible. - Apr 2008
