Residentual locations in Dubai.

Any thoughts on an ideal residential location. One partner working in Abu Dhabi, the other plus child need to be in Sharjah daily, second child in final year of education in Dxb. Ideally villa. Nightmare situation I know. Know the UAE well having lived here many years, but with the growth and new developments would love to hear any suggestions.

I'd say Mirdif was just that bit too far from AD.

Yes and I've spent time in Bahrain too. Bolton wins hands down. Now, back to the topic under discussion, where exactly is the second child schooled? Anywhere along the Emirates Rd from Arabian Ranches to Mirdif seems okay.
