Re: Moving to Riyadh
I used to live and work in Saudi and visited Riyadh on business trips. You should investigate the Diplomatic Quarter, which is a zone of the city designed specially for foreigners.

Re: Moving to Riyadh
Aye, have a look at the Diplomatic Quarter (DQ), it has quite a lot of residential accommodation, as well as most of the Embassies. Nice place to live by all accounts, just happens to be right at the bottom end of town, so a bit far from everywhere else.
