Dubai communities ranked by studio price per sqft

29 Dubai communities have at least 15 priced studio records in the July 2026 dataset, covering 7,479 studios in total. They are ranked here from the cheapest median asking price per sqft to the most expensive, which is the comparison that holds when floor areas differ.

Al Warsan is cheapest at AED 1,269 per sqft for a median 486 sqft studio, asking AED 565K. Dubai Maritime City is the most expensive at AED 4,070 per sqft on 414 sqft, asking AED 1.65M, which is 3.2x the cheapest median.

Across the ranked communities the median studio asks AED 1,925 per sqft, AED 796K in total, on 416 sqft. The entry column is the 25th percentile asking price in that community, which is a fairer read on the realistic floor than the single cheapest unit on the list.

Definitions and thresholds

How this is computed

Rows cover only the studio inventory in each community, not the whole community, which is why the last column repeats the all-unit community median for contrast. A community appears with at least 15 priced studio records, counting both individually listed units and published unit types. Bedroom counts are as labelled by the developer, so a layout marketed as a convertible studio is counted where the developer put it. Median size is built-up area. Records with an implausible price or size are dropped before any statistic is computed. Figures are OffplanIndex aggregates over developer-published project facts and unit inventories, not a copy of any listing database.

Full definitions, exclusion rules and sources are in the methodology, and what we do and do not republish is set out in the data policy. Built 2026-09-02 from data observed to 2026-07-30. Not investment advice.
