A tight cluster of new apartment blocks inside a factory and warehouse zone at the far south-west of Dubai. Every project we list starts with a studio. Rental yields are high, and there is little around you yet.

Dubai Industrial City is mostly factories and warehouses. The homes sit close together: nearly every project we list is within 0.5 km of the centre. On ready flats, DLD gross yields run from 8.7% to 9.8%. In the year to September 2026, ready studios sold at a median of AED 425,000. The cost is distance. There is no metro, mall, school or park within 5 km in a straight line, and the local roads carry industrial traffic. It suits you if you work in the zone, or if you buy to rent to people who do.

Eat
The zone is built for work, so there are few places to eat inside it. For a proper meal or a big shop, you drive out.

What homes cost
Off-plan apartments sold most often here, at a median of AED 614,000 in the last 12 months.
The median is the middle price: half the homes sold for more, half for less. A sea view or a high floor can cost a lot more than the median.

Questions people ask
Is Dubai Industrial City good for families?
Not yet. Every project we list starts with a studio, and only some of Dugasta's Al Haseen buildings go up to 3 beds. The nearest schools on our map are about 19 km away in a straight line, and the nearest park about 15 km. The one hospital close by is the Jebel Ali Emergency and Trauma Center, 3.5 km away. It suits single buyers, couples who work nearby, and investors.
Is there a metro in Dubai Industrial City?
No. The nearest station, Life Pharmacy on the Red Line, is about 13 km away in a straight line, and Expo 2020 station about 15 km. Dubai Marina is about 25 km away and Burj Khalifa 43 km, so you will need a car.
What will a studio cost in Dubai Industrial City?
In the projects we list, starting prices run from about AED 475,000 to AED 680,000, and all of them start with a studio. In DLD sales in the year to September 2026, off-plan studios sold at a median of about AED 572,000 and ready studios at AED 425,000. Prices were checked in November 2026.
Is Dubai Industrial City good for rental yield?
On paper, yes. DLD gross yields on ready flats here are 8.9% for studios, 9.8% for 1-beds and 8.7% for 2-beds, from Ejari rents against sale prices. They are gross figures, before service charges and empty months. Most tenants are likely to be people who work nearby.
When will the projects be finished?
Most of the projects we list are due between 2027 and 2029, half of them in 2027. Al Haseen Residence was due in March 2026, so that date may be out of date: ask Dugasta. In the DLD register for this area, most of the unfinished projects show no building work yet.
