Sulaibiya (Arabic: الصليبية) or Al-Sulaibiya is a suburban neighbourhood in Al Jahra Governorate, Kuwait.
It covers an area of roughly 12 square kilometres (4.6 sq mi) and has a population of around 38,000 residents.
[1] The suburb has become famous for being a haven for Bedoon residents, a marginalized group that has been caught in legal limbo, unable to gain citizenship while facing discrimination and lack of access to employment, education, and social services available to Kuwaiti nationals.
Moreover, it accommodates several agricultural and dairy farms, and the residential area consisting of 10 blocks.
[3][4][5][6] A plan to relocate the neighbourhood for future development is underway and will involve transferring all residents of Sulaibiya to the in-development site of Al-Naayem.
