Experience a next-generation community built around the world’s largest airport, featuring diverse homes, commercial ecosystems, and abundant green spaces — the perfect balance of modern convenience, sustainability, and growth potential.
Community Overview
Dubai South, formerly known as Dubai World Central (DWC), is a master-planned city, 100% owned by the government of the UAE, built by Dubai South Real Estate Company, on the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum. Strategically located around Al Maktoum International Airport—set to become the world’s largest—the community is a multi-faceted development spanning eight key zones, including residential, commercial, logistics, and aviation.
The residential area is the centre of tomorrow and more than just a residential region offering apartments, townhouses, mansions, and villas; it's a smart city ecology. Emerging as a key economic zone with flexi-desk and licensing opportunities, the gated community hosts company centres, environmentally conscious commercial spaces, logistics, and warehouse facilities.
The area promises great capital appreciation and long-term return on investment. Expo City, planned business hubs, sustainability, smart infrastructure, and proximity to world aviation make it an ideal investment. It presents a future-ready, all-in-one lifestyle with incomparable connection and opportunity in one of Dubai's most ambitious projects, whether for business or residence. Top developers like Azizi, starting new projects, are driving significant local development and capital increase.
To your surprise, Dubai South will host Waada, Bahria Town’s first UAE community, featuring modern sustainable homes, parks, retail, and cultural spaces—boosting Dubai South’s appeal as a top integrated living and investment destination by 2040.
The community is a future-ready lifestyle with sustainability, connectivity, and investment opportunity at its core—an all-in-one destination for people, companies, and worldwide investors.
