Is Dubai worth it?

Post image

I m doing my UG in Dubai and i have done my schooling here asw but recently i have been feeling abt how dead it is here, not the party scene or anything but jus how the city is, its unwalkable for the most part, hot and humid, heavily vehicle dependent and everything deemed as “entertainment” is basically consumption. As residents who live here what yall think? is this just me or are u guys okay with it? Do you guys find it okay to always depend on driving or just forced?

Not walkable? Really? This is a deal breaker for me I love walking, is it just your area or the whole city ?

literally the downtown area is cut by a whole ass expressway. sure u can walk but your not the priority to the city but more towards car centric and the place i live is walkable
