Foreign workers are roughly 25% of the total population, nearly 40% of

About 35%, which is the figure I used for my calculation.

In terms of available income, the figure will be very similar to that
of the US, and, believe it or not, it is more evenly distributed _among
Saudi citizens_


The figures I gave were adjusted for purchasing parity.
