Mid-rise apartment blocks at lower prices than neighbouring central districts. Who it suits: Yield-focused investors buying studios and one-beds; Budget-conscious buyers wanting a central location; Staff at Dubai Healthcare City and the airport; Tenants who rely on the metro. In its favour: - Green Line metro at Al Jadaf and Creek stations; Creek is the planned Blue Line interchange - About 15 minutes from Dubai International Airport and 12 from Dubai Mall (Bayut area guide) - Lower entry prices than Business Bay, Downtown or Creek Harbour Worth weighing: - Supply is heavy and concentrated in small units from a few developers, so new buildings compete directly for the same tenants - Shipyards and dry docks still operate on part of the waterfront, and with 34 projects listed, building work on neighbouring plots is likely for years Full guide: [Al Jaddaf](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/al-jaddaf) ## What Ras Al Khor is like > The district around the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary and Ras Al Khor Road, where Sobha Realty is building Sobha One: five towers, a pitch-and-putt golf course and golf-facing duplexes. Who it suits: Investors wanting a central location below Downtown prices; Professionals commuting to Business Bay, Downtown or the airport; Golfers interested in the pitch-and-putt course and golf-facing duplexes; Buyers who want a near-complete building from Sobha. In its favour: - About 12 minutes by car to Business Bay and Dubai International Airport (Sobha) - 18-hole pitch-and-putt golf course inside Sobha One (Sobha) - Next to the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary Worth weighing: - Property Finder places the site in Ras Al Khor Industrial 1, and parts of the surroundings are still industrial - Sobha One's five towers and The Element add a large number of apartments in one place Full guide: [Ras Al Khor](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/ras-al-khor) ## Questions and answers ### Which is closer to Dubai International Airport, Al Jaddaf or Ras Al Khor?
