Living in Al Wahda — 60-second summary
Al Wahda is a central Abu Dhabi city district best known for its retail, sports and transport anchors, including Al Wahda Mall and the Al Nahyan Stadium area. It’s a convenient choice for residents who want to live close to downtown workplaces, government offices and the dense network of city services. Housing is primarily apartments, with a range of older and mid-age towers and mid-rise buildings; quality and amenities can differ sharply from one building to the next. Day-to-day life is walkable in parts, with plenty of cafés, supermarkets and transit options nearby, although Abu Dhabi remains car-friendly.
