Dubai Sports City is built around a genuinely uncommon idea for a Dubai community: real, world-class sporting infrastructure as the actual anchor, not a marketing add-on. Spread across 50 million square feet in Dubailand, it's home to the Dubai International Stadium, the Ernie Els-designed Els Club golf course, and the ICC Academy — and that infrastructure has matured into one of the more dependable yield stories in the city. The market suits a specific buyer: investors chasing strong, well-supported rental income at a low entry price, and end-users who actually want to live near the sports facilities they use. We rate Dubai Sports City as one of Dubai's better income plays for a sub-AED-1-million budget — the trade-off, as with most of Dubailand, is that you'll need a car.
