Question Which communities are the most fun to live in

... if you are young free and single.

Is there a particularly hip and happening place in Dubai? A hippy enclave?

You're better off in Riyadh, where I am.

.......... then everyone congregates in "The Square", where they redefine the phrase "Capital City"......
