Midtown Dubai
Mid rise apartments around green courtyards in Production City.
Living in Midtown
Midtown is a residential cluster by Deyaar inside Dubai Production City. Its mid rise buildings are set around landscaped courtyards with pools, play areas and walking paths, giving it a calmer and greener feel than many apartment areas.
It is popular with couples and young families who want a modern apartment at a fair price, close to Sports City, Motor City and the main roads.
Each building in Midtown has its own name and entrance, but they share the same layout of courtyards, so neighbours tend to see each other at the pool or in the play areas. Underground parking keeps cars away from the gardens, which makes the cluster feel quieter than its size suggests. Many residents work in Media City, Internet City or JLT and drive in against the main traffic flow.

For investors
Midtown usually returns around 7% gross. The courtyard layout and newer buildings help it rent faster than older blocks nearby.
We compare service charges and recent rents across buildings, and against the rest of Dubai Production City, before you buy.
Smaller units, especially one bedrooms, are the easiest to let and usually attract couples or single professionals on one or two year contracts. Before buying, ask for the service charge history of the building and the latest rent for the same layout, since these two numbers decide most of your return. Furnished units can achieve higher rents, but they also need more upkeep between tenants.
For families
Families like the courtyards, pools and play areas. Schools are a short drive away in Motor City and Dubai Sports City.
The courtyards are closed to traffic, so younger children can play outside safely, and nurseries are a short drive away.
Getting around
Midtown sits off Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road. Dubai Marina is about 20 minutes away, Downtown Dubai about 25 to 30 minutes and Al Maktoum International Airport about 25 minutes. There is no metro, so most residents drive.
Taxis and ride hailing cars are easy to book, and buses link the area to the nearest metro stations. Traffic at the exits onto Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road can build up in the morning, so test your commute at peak time.
Nearby
Shops and cafés are on site, and City Centre Me'aisem is close by. Dubai Production City, Dubai Sports City and Motor City are all next door.
Dubai Sports City's canal side cafés are a short drive away for evenings out.
