Hi all,

I've just accepted a job in Dubai with the work being based in JLT.
I've been doing a lot of research and have found plenty of nice properties to rent in Dubai.

As I don't know the area well enough though, I was seeking some help on where is best to live for a young family.
My partner and I are in our very early 30's! And my son is 8 months. I'm not interested in the night life of Dubai, more the community feel, where there would be plenty to do for my wife and son.

I'm not worried about money to a certain extent, but, I would say that initially, our limit is 120k a year AED for a property. Just so we can make sure that Dubai is for us!

Please can people advise on the best areas to look at?

Many thanks.

Hi Tony

I suggest you to live in Dubai sports city.. it's very close to JLT + it's new very clean and quiet. It has every thing, shopping malls, supermarkets, cafeshops, bars ETC .. it would be the best place for you family as well.
