Al-Awamiyah, also spelled Awamia, (Arabic: العوامية al-ʿAwāmiyyah) is a town situated in the Al-Qatif region[2] in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. As of 2009[update], it has a population of about 25,500 people.[1] Al-Awamiyah is bordered by the Al-Ramis farms to the east and some other farms to the west and the south. To the north side, there is a dividing line between Al-Awamiyah and the neighboring Safwa city, so the town cannot expand any more and provide housing land for its growing population. Due to this limited land, the people move out of the town and settle in nearby neighborhoods, notably Al-Nasera which is home to almost 2500 people living in 250 homes.[3]
