Today, Arab Abou Eid are settled in the village of حوش الرافعة where they are concentrated in the neighborhood of حوش العرب. They started to buy lands in حوش الرافعة in 1959 where the cost of the land was extremely low. They traded goats for land ownership.
The neighborhood of حوش العرب is surrounded, except from the north, by agricultural lands owned by the Yezbek family. Residential areas of the village of حوش السناد, owned by the Parliament Member Nabil De Frage, surround the neighborhood of حوش العرب from the north.
The source of drinking water is mainly potable water and water from fountains. The fountains used are نبع حوشبا ونبع تل الغسيل.
Arab Abou Eid herdsmen use pastures in neighboring areas such as شمصطار وحوش الرافعة for grazing. They pay a fee to the مختار and this can be seen as a mean of controlling and managing grazing.
Arab Abou Eid do not own any agricultural land, but many of them work in agriculture.
