Which place to choose for living?

Hi,
Not sure that you'll get a choice about asking for a location -it may be that they have a specific location/job already planned.
Most of the compounds are very expensive so that's probably not an option. The English teachers that I know start off by living in a hotel, then eventually get around to renting accommodation in the local community. The main downside to that is that you may find it harder to get access to gym/pool.
Driving/commuting can be "fun" but you get used to it fairly quickly so it's not a major issue. There is some comfort in driving yourself rather than relying on others. Security here in the Kingdom is fine, compound living is easier for families but a single male you'll not face too may issues.
If you don't live next to a mosque, I'd be very surprised if you can't hear one - unless you're in the middle of the desert
The reality here is that the experience is so different for everyone, it's difficult to give you standard replies. Many towns are still expanding so someone's experience from even a few years ago may not be reflective of today.
Places like Jeddah, Riyadh and the Eastern Province (Dhahran, RT, Abqaiq etc) will have the most expats therefore the best choice of activities, events etc. Also on the Eastern Province you can visit Bahrain easier.
Jeddah, Yanbu, Rabigh, Jizan all have access to the Red Sea if you're a diver. Also the first 3 are near to mountains as well. Tabuk is also in the mountains but can suffer from more extreme temperatures even snow!! Khamis (Mushayt?) and Narjan are a bit more remote but Khamis is close to Abha which is a (locals) tourist spot, mainly in the summer. Jizan was fairly small but is undergoing a rapid expansion due to new refinery etc.
I've heard of Qassim but can't really help you - as for the others, never even heard of them

Good luck with your interview
