How to read this map

Change compares median AED per sq ft within each bedroom type and within off-plan or ready, then combines them. So an area that sold more cheap studios doesn't read as a price fall, and the headline can differ from the simple median moving from one period to the next.

These tables list areas with at least 50 comparable sales in each period. Our DLD records start on 1 January 2026, so this shows the change within 2026, not over several years.
