Studios in the projects we list start close to the DLD median for off-plan studios in the wider area. The cost is building work for years: most projects on the DLD register here have not started. Downtown Dubai is 12.7 km away in a straight line, and you will need a car.

New homes due in City of Arabia

⁠

About 8,200 new homes are due in City of Arabia in 2027, the most in any year from 2027 to 2029.

The homes in every project registered with the Dubai Land Department that isn't finished, by the year it is due. These are all registered projects, not only the ones we list. DLD registers these in Wadi Al Safa 4.

Completion dates often move: DLD can move the due date when a project is given more time. One of these projects has no home count in the register yet.

Questions people ask

What will a studio or 1-bed cost in City of Arabia?

In the projects we list, studios start from about AED 583,000, against a DLD off-plan studio median of AED 591,000 in Wadi Al Safa 4, the wider DLD area. Arancia Yards starts at 1-beds, from about AED 1 million, below the 1-bed median of AED 1.22 million. Prices were checked in November 2026 and change as units sell.

Is there a metro in City of Arabia?

No. The nearest Red Line stations, Garmin (formerly Noor Bank) and Equiti, are 12.3 and 12.6 km away in a straight line, on Sheikh Zayed Road. You will need a car.

Is City of Arabia good for families?

Only with a car. Our map shows one school within 5 km, GEMS FirstPoint School at 5.0 km in a straight line, then Kent College (UK) at 5.1 km. There is no hospital within 5 km; Fakeeh University Hospital is 7.1 km away. Most homes here are studios to 3-beds, and Laguna Residence also has duplexes.

When will the projects be finished?

MAG 330 was listed for handover in June 2026. That date may be out of date, so ask MAG where it stands. Laguna Residence is due in December 2027, Azizi Milan in June 2028 and Arancia Yards in March 2029.

Will I be living next to building sites?

Probably, for several years. The DLD register for Wadi Al Safa 4 lists about 20 projects, and most have not started, with promised dates from 2027 to 2029. Two under way had promised dates in 2025 and early 2026 and were about three quarters complete.
