Mirdif offers suburban living that is ideal for families, which is uncommon in Dubai, especially given its cost. This area has changed significantly over the past few decades, especially when compared to the city's other planned and newer neighborhoods. The residents of Mirdif, many of whom have lived there for many years, adore it, though it is a world away from the chrome and metal of contemporary Dubai.
Beloved in equal measures by Emiratis and expats from across the world, a number of families living in Mirdif have done so for their entire lives and quite honestly can’t imagine living anywhere else in Dubai! What makes renting in Mirdif so special is the fact that it is genuine and has been developed for the needs of the residents – not as a tourist destination. In fact, it is one of the few communities in Dubai without a hotel. Home to a wide range of educational institutes and other facilities, Mirdif is counted among the best residential areas in Dubai for families.
