As Sulayil is considered one of the fastest growing cities in Saudi Arabia. It has a population of 450,000 according to the last statistics of 2006. What is fascinating about this city is the rapidly increasing economy. With 3 buildings listed in the highest 10 buildings in Saudi Arabia list, As Sulayil's downtown is one of the most visited sites in the kingdom. Unfortunately, the surrounding area is not up to the level. The nearby village of Wadi Addawasir, is considered one of the poorest villages in the area. However, As Sulayil took responsiblity for uplefting the nearby village, trying to support it until it can be self suffecient.
