The weather

Dubai has sunshine almost everyday, the whole year. And for about eight to nine months of this the weather is near perfect to enjoy all of Dubai’s outdoor activities and beaches! Dubai has a warm yet for the most part, highly pleasant climate. The summer months are typically the only time when the weather becomes a problem, with the temperature during the summer period of June through to September often going into the 40’s.

No tax

Yes, Dubai offers a tax free living environment. There are numerous business incentives with dedicated business freezone areas, plus there is no income or capital gains tax, nor is there any corporation tax. And now with freehold law and the ability to own your own property, Dubai is certainly an appealing place to come and work.

Safety

It doesn’t matter how many great things a place can offer if you don’t feel safe living there. And fortunately for Dubai residents, it is one of the safest places in the world.  Dubai is now regarded as being one of the top five safest cities to live. Crime levels here as simply very low. Offences against another person and other crimes such as theft are kept in kept check by a vigilant police force, whilst the fact that only 1.7% of the population is currently unemployed clearly plays a large role.

Combine a high standard of living, low crime; good schools, vibrant nightlife and great weather, and you get life in Dubai. Here one can expect a lifestyle that for many that is rarely surpassed in their home countries.

Stable economy

With Dubai’s currency being fixed to the US dollar, pegged at AED 3.67: US$, this therefore gives the currency a strong element of stability, which a quick look at the news will tell you is something not to be taken for granted in the Middle-East. For the last 10 years Dubai has achieved GDP growth of just below 10% and is presently considered as one the world’s fastest developing cities.

A cosmopolitan city

Dubai is a very diverse city, with numerous differing nationalities all coexisting within the city, and all brining different cultures and influences that help to make Dubai a very interesting place to live.

The best is yet to come

As somewhere that is already considered one of the best places to live in the world, Dubai still has a lot up its sleeve. To achieve such a level of international acclaim and popularity despite the fact that the majority of its projects and developments are yet to be completed, goes to show what a unique destination Dubai really is, and highlights the potential it has in the coming years. With upcoming projects set to consist of the likes of Dubai land, which aims to become the world’s largest tourism destination.
