Quartiers aux EAU
39 guides de quartier dans 5 émirats : à qui convient chaque quartier, ce que les résidents apprécient, les points à peser et comment s'y déplacer.
Choisir où vivre aux EAU
Les quartiers des EAU se répartissent en quelques grandes catégories : des districts d'appartements denses au bord de l'eau ou au cœur de la ville, comme Dubai Marina et Downtown Dubai ; des quartiers de villas et de maisons de ville planifiés, aménagés autour de parcs, d'écoles ou d'un golf, comme Arabian Ranches et Dubai Hills Estate ; et les îles et fronts de mer d'Abu Dhabi, comme Yas et Saadiyat. Chaque émirat fixe aussi ses propres règles de propriété et de location : là où vous pouvez acheter — et à quelles conditions — dépend autant de l'émirat que de l'adresse.
La plupart des gens ramènent leur choix à quelques questions pratiques avant de regarder les biens un par un. Les guides ci-dessous présentent chaque quartier tour à tour : à qui il convient, ce que les résidents apprécient, les points à peser et comment s'y déplacer. Nous n'indiquons pas de prix ni de rendements, qui changent d'un mois à l'autre ; pour les chiffres actuels, consultez les données du Dubai Land Department et l'indice officiel des loyers.
- Budget. Des appartements dans les districts centraux, ou plus d'espace pour le même budget en périphérie.
- Trajet domicile-travail. La distance qui vous sépare de votre travail, et selon que le quartier dispose d'une station de métro ou dépend de la voiture.
- Type de logement. Appartement, maison de ville ou villa — et le style de vie propre à chacun.
- Besoins familiaux. Écoles, parcs et tranquillité, pour les familles avec enfants scolarisés.
- Propriété. Si vous achetez, selon que le quartier est ouvert à la pleine propriété (freehold) pour les étrangers.
- Les compromis. Chaque guide expose les inconvénients aussi clairement que les atouts.
