Living and Working Conditions
Djibouti, on the Horn of Africa, is a mostly French- and Arabic-speaking country of dry shrublands, volcanic formations and Gulf of Aden beaches.
Djibouti is a multi-ethnic nation with a population of over 921,804 inhabitants (the smallest in mainland Africa). French and Arabic are the country’s
two official languages. About 94% of residents adhere to Islam which is the official religion and has been predominant in the region for more than a
thousand years.
Djibouti is strategically located near some of the world’s busiest shipping lanes, controlling access to the Red Sea and Indian Ocean. It serves as a
key refuelling and transshipment center, and is the principal maritime port for imports from and exports to neighbouring
Ethiopia. A burgeoning commercial hub, the nation is the site of various foreign military bases, including Camp Lemonnier. The Intergovernmental
Authority on Development (IGAD) regional body also has its headquarters in Djibouti City.
There is moderate risk from crime in Djibouti. Most reported incidents are crimes of opportunity (e.g. pickpocketing, petty theft) for immediate gain.
Panhandlers and street children target foreigners for petty theft by creating distractions. Unreported crimes also commonly occur within the local
community. Exercised caution in congested areas such as the central market, city center, and downtown neighbourhoods (known locally as
quartiers), especially after dark. Avoid isolated areas, particularly along the urban coastline.
Djibouti is in Seismic Zone 4, indicating a very high likelihood of damage resulting from earthquakes. Although hot conditions prevail year-round,
brief periods of moderate to heavy rains can cause severe flooding of roads and homes due to poor infrastructure. High tides exacerbate flooding.
In recent years, flooding has led to several fatalities across Djibouti, especially when unpredicted rain leads to flash flooding in the country. Life is
generally expensive including food and accommodation. The climate in Djibouti country is hot and dry all year round, especially during summers.
The average temperature varies from 23º to 29º in January and from 31º to 46º in July
