Hey everyone,
Quick meta update regarding posts on r/Erbil.
Moving forward, individual standalone posts asking "looking for friends", "anyone want to hang out?", or similar social prompts are no longer allowed on the main feed.
The subreddit is getting cluttered with these requests, and it's becoming very repetitive.
Where to post instead: Please keep all friend-making and social networking in the [Make a Friend Megathread]. It drops every week, uses a structured template, and keeps everything organized in one place so the main feed stays clean for news, events, and discussions.
Note: New individual posts asking for friends will be removed and redirected to the megathread.
Thanks for helping keep the sub organized!

Hey everyone,
As our community grows, we want to ensure r/Erbil remains a high-quality, useful, and welcoming space for residents, expats, and visitors alike.
Lately, the front page of the subreddit has been overwhelmed by repetitive posts, low-effort rants, and intense debates surrounding demographics, immigration, and ethnic relations. While we understand these are real-world topics that people want to discuss, the sheer volume of these posts is drowning out everything else—local news, city events, questions about neighborhoods, recommendations, and daily life in Erbil.
We are not banning these discussions entirely, but to keep the subreddit from turning into a one-topic limited space, we are introducing two new rules effective immediately:
1. No Low-Effort or Repetitive Rants
If a topic (e.g., a specific debate about demographics or immigration) has already been posted and discussed within the last 72 hours, new standalone threads on the exact same topic will be removed. Please use the search bar and contribute to existing threads rather than starting a new one every time you have a thought. Furthermore, screenshot-only posts of social media drama without constructive context will be removed.
2. Posts Must Be Directly Relevant to Erbil City
Many recent posts are broad national or regional political debates that belong on general country subreddits. If a post is about country-wide politics, broader Middle Eastern geopolitics, or general ethnic relations that do not specifically and directly impact the day-to-day running of Erbil city, it will be removed.
Where to post instead: For broad political, historical, or national discussions, please utilize r/kurdistan or r/Iraq, which are better equipped for those larger conversations.
Our goal here isn't to police opinions or suppress anyone. We just want to ensure that when someone visits r/Erbil, they see a reflection of the entire city—its food, its development, its daily challenges, its culture, and its community—not just a non-stop debate feed.
Thank you for helping us keep the sub organized and readable! Let us know if you have any questions in the comments below.

A medical clinic is looking for someone to handle their marketing and social media. The person will be responsible for capturing and editing videos on a daily basis and preparing content for social media.
Must have experience in a similar position. Work time is in the afternoon till evenings so it’s a great opportunity for students looking for a part time job.
DM me if you are interested or you know someone who is

Is there a way to know where the buses are when the last one goes on its way or what its route is etc. ?
Like … tracking the bus almost. Just like those airplane trackers
Update: to those of you who want something similar to this there is an app called basate (باصاتي) that shows you the routes of each bus it doesn’t have tracking or times of bus departures but it might suffice for many
This won’t be an excuse for me to not go on with my idea إن شاء الله this is actually a good thing for my moral since I now have an accurate map of the bus routes and that takes this project several steps forward.

19 year old female, studying engineering at Salahaddin university. My father passed away and my family really need financial support, my mother can't work she's very sick and we're relying on her retirement salary. My brothers are too young. Our other relatives are too distant. I feel devastated seeing my family going through such tough times. I am ready to work anything reasonable if it fits within a students schedule, I need a monthly income of at least 300k IQD for our house rent, I am fluent in Kurdish Arabic and English so language barrier is not a problem, willing to improve any skills required. Also I learn by doing.
Where do I look? How to recognize scam and such? Would it be difficult to find somewhere that's willing to hire me?

What are your recommendations when it comes to coffee shops that sell Lemon pies? I haven’t come across any that do so. And which coffee shops sell good sweets and not some sugar filled/chocolate diabetes. All recommendations are much appreciated.
