🇦🇪 Where to live in Dubai
Dubai's residential areas split roughly into tower districts, beach and island addresses, and the older quarters along the Creek. Downtown Dubai, Business Bay and DIFC are dense and central; Dubai Marina, JBR and Palm Jumeirah put daily life on the water; Deira and Bur Dubai are the souk and heritage side of the city. Most of these areas sit within a few minutes' walk of a metro or monorail station.
