Jeddah Neighbourhood Guide: Economic City

Jeddah Economic City, also known as King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC), is a significant project in Saudi Arabia. It started in 2005 to boost the country's economy and reduce its reliance on oil. This city is on the Red Sea coast and aims to be a thriving hub for industries, trade, education, and more. It's part of Saudi Arabia's "Vision 2030" plan to diversify its economy and create new opportunities.

Jeddah Economic City is progressing with modern infrastructure, a deep-sea port, universities like the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, and various industries. It's set to play a vital role in Saudi Arabia's economic growth and development, attracting investments and businesses and helping to transform the country's economy for the future.

Where is Economic City?

To the north of the Economic City is the Red Sea, while its southern boundaries extend toward the city of Jeddah. To the east, it is bordered by the Al-Lith Governorate, and to the west, it faces the Red Sea. The location by the Red Sea makes it strategically significant for trade and commerce, as well as for the development of a deep-sea port as part of the economic city's infrastructure.
