I don't think Abu Dhabi has a better public transportation system than Dubai however I have been to Abu Dhabi a few times, I didn't face the congestion I would normally face in Dubai, so......

I maybe agree with OP with the ease of transport part, getting from point a to b in Abu Dhabi might be easier. But in terms of Public transport don't think there is any Emirates that has a better system than Dubai. Its quite impressive.

You'll find bad eggs everywhere. I found Ajman to be peaceful and quiet. It's not as developed as Dubai not in any way. But accommodation is cheap. You can live a normal, less insane and quieter life in Ajman. There are decent and honest people living there and earning a living like everywhere else. The only thing I will say is for someone just coming into UAE, you wouldn't want to go to Ajman first as there aren't much opportunities there compared to Dubai.

Did you say biased? Like seriously?

I'm talking about ease of transportation and I still stand on my point that AD is better than Dubai.

You talking about hyperloop?

Hahahaha, anyways I know about it, and Dat doesn't even come into dis discussion.

Do you have an idea roughly the % of people working and Dubai and staying in AD and vice versa?
@Bolded, lol.

Do your research well bro

That point about Ajman is misplaced and wrong. I've been in UAEnso far for 5 months and four of those were spent living in Ajman. Apart from having the luck of coming in through an extremely good agent (he also lives in Ajman), I can say the state is one of the most relatively laid-back and vibrant among the states. Not once did I encounter people who'd fallen into the hands of scammer agents from Ajman. In fact, the only guy I met was a dude whose agent in Nigeria scammed him 2 million for 90 days visit visa and immediately he got into Dubai, the agent cancelled the VIsa.
I've been to places like Sharjah, Deira and Al Barsha in Dubai and zi can tell you there are more crooked Nigerians (agents and more) in those places than in Ajman. Please don't mislead people. If I hadn't lived there, I'd have believed you.

Also, you clearly don't know some things but are too obstinate to learn from others. That's not a good sign of a good teacher. Saying transportation in Abu Dhabi is better than Dubai? I'm just going to chill, bro. Others have pointed it out already.

Apart from all that, you're correct on the others.

Thanks for the detailed comparison between Abu Dhabi and Dubai. For those considering Dubai, especially areas like Jumeirah or Dubai Marina, serviced apartments can offer both comfort and affordability. I've come across some listings that might be helpful for travellers seeking short-term stays.
