Kuwait is the least popular destination for expats to live and work in the world, according to a new global survey compiled by InterNations and included 64 countries.
The Best & Worst Places for Expats in 2015 poll, ranked Kuwait 64th and last place of the overall ranking, particularly due to its low score in the Ease of Settling In Index.
Up to 53% of respondents to the poll that included 14,300 expats are unhappy with the general friendliness of local residents. The opportunities to find new friends also leave a lot to be desired for one-third of respondents.
Unfortunately, the situation is similarly grim when it comes to the overall quality of life. Many expats are not satisfied with the available leisure options, while others see their personal happiness suffering. Only for the Job Security and Language subcategories does the country receive some decent results, making it to 26th and 25th place, respectively.
Saudi Arabia also ranked poorly at 61st while Qatar was also one of the least popular countries at 54th.
The survey, which was topped by Ecuador, Mexico and Malta, asked expats to rate their experiences for Quality of Life, Ease of Settling In, Working Abroad, Family Life, Personal Finance, and Cost of Living.
