If you're husband will be Doha-based, then you can request for a housing here in Doha. But if he will be working in, let's say, Ras Laffan, then I think Al Khor is the only choice. I'm not sure about this though.

Been to the Al Khor community lots of times and I love it and maybe you and your family might love it too. What I love about the place is the cheap food at Al Nakheel, Dahkira and Waha club. :)
