Arjan and Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC) are a short drive apart and attract similar renters. Our office is in JVC, so we show homes in both. Here is how they compare.

Type of homes

  • JVC — a huge mix: apartments of every size, townhouses and villas, in buildings of all ages
  • Arjan — mainly newer mid-rise apartment buildings, many with pools and gyms
  • Feel

  • JVC — busy, established, lots going on, with Circle Mall in the middle
  • Arjan — newer and growing, with parts still under construction
  • Getting around

    Both are best with a car.

  • JVC — between Al Khail Road and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road
  • Arjan — off Umm Suqeim Road, close to Al Khail Road and Al Barsha South
  • Amenities

  • JVC — Circle Mall, many parks, cafés and shops across the districts
  • Arjan — Dubai Miracle Garden and Butterfly Garden, Mediclinic Parkview Hospital, shops on building ground floors
  • Which suits you?

    Choose JVC if you want the most choice, an established community and lots of shops and restaurants around you.

    Choose Arjan if you want a newer building, are close to Mediclinic Parkview or Al Barsha, and don't mind some ongoing construction.
