The city of Al Khobar is one of the cities in the Eastern Province in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It is located south of Dammam, about seventeen kilometers away, and about ten kilometers from Dhahran. Al Khobar flourished significantly after the discovery of oil in its neighboring areas, and the Eastern Province is considered the most important in oil production in the Kingdom, as most of the oil production comes from this region. This led to the establishment of industrial cities, and among the most prominent of these cities is Al Khobar.
In the past, Al Khobar was just a small outlet on the Arabian Gulf, and it was also a village inhabited by individuals from a tribe known as Al-Dawasir in 1935. However, with the start of oil companies drilling for petroleum in nearby Dhahran, Al Khobar became a major oil export point, contributing to its development and prosperity in various fields.
In fact, the origin of the name Al Khobar is not precisely known. Some believe that the word Al Khobar is the plural of "Khabra," which is the place where flood and rainwater collects, while others see that the word Al Khobar means "sidr and arak trees." The name was given to the city due to the abundance of this type of trees on its coast. The demographic structure of Al Khobar differs from other Saudi cities because most of its population are non-Saudis, with non-Saudis making up more than 56% of the city's residents. This is due to the presence of many oil companies in Al Khobar, which led to an increased need for doctors, engineers, and technicians, hence an increase in the number of foreign labor in the city.
The climate of Al Khobar is characterized by being hot in the summer and mild in the winter, with summer temperatures reaching their peak and averaging fifty degrees Celsius, while in winter, the average temperature is about fifteen degrees Celsius. Humidity in the summer averages about 83% and decreases to 48% in the winter. The city receives about 85 millimeters of rain annually. The economic activity in Al Khobar integrates with the activities of the cities of Dammam and Dhahran, as the economic activity in Al Khobar mainly depends on trade. The city includes many commercial complexes, hotels, and banks. Agriculturally, farming is limited to orchards and gardens on the northern and western outskirts of the city. There are farms for poultry, vegetables, and fruits, and in addition, there are some consumer industries, such as building materials, soft drinks, clothes, dairy products, and industrial gases.
