TESTING FOR NEW ARTICLE!!
The Subdivisions of Dubai is based on two levels: the first level is made up of the Sectors, the second level is formed by the Communities (sometimes also referred to as Districts). [1]
The subdivisions of Dubai are rather for planning and administration purposes and not for historical or cultural purposes which helps the planners and decision makers for better planning and generating necessary plans needed for each community. This helps in maintaining each community’s privacy and insuring that it has its own public facilities and services.
This subdivision does not uniquely identify the city of Dubai and therefore does not distinguish between communities belonging to the metropolitan core itself and those belonging to the suburbs or outskirts. However, help in making this distinction comes from the Dubai Urban Plan of 2020. This plan divides the territory of the Emirate into four areas, which reflect distinctive environmental and landscape qualities as well as urban settlement characteristics and land use functions. These areas are: [2]
- Area 1: Offshore Sensitive Urban Area (within 12 nautical miles from the coast);
- Area 2: Metropolitan Urban Area (west of the Outer Bypass Road (E 611 or "Emirates Road"));
- Area 3: Non-urban area (desert lands including land uses for: equestrian sports and camel racing, conservation areas, non-urban settlements);
- Area 4: Non-urban area (desert lands including land uses for: aquifer areas, gas extraction areas, agricultural settlements);
On the basis of this distinction, the metropolitan area of Dubai can therefore be defined as the portion of territory between the E 311 and the coast. This area coincides, net of some small portions, with that subtended by Sectors 1 to 6, also including the offshore area of the artificial islands, whose communities therefore constitute the urban core of the city of Dubai.
Sectors
[edit]There are 9 Sectors in Dubai Below are the sectors with their surface area and population updated to 2021, as indicated by the referenced reports of the Dubai Statistic Center.

Al Awir - Sector 7
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Al_Aweer_-_United_Arab_Emirates_-_panoramio_%2826%29.jpg/310px-Al_Aweer_-_United_Arab_Emirates_-_panoramio_%2826%29.jpg)
This Sector is located in the north-eastern part of the Emirate of Dubai and is bordered to the north and east by the Emirate of Sharjah . The external border is marked to the north by the Maleha Road and to the east by the Nazwa Road, while the internal borders with the other sectors are marked to the north-west by the Emirates Road , and to the south-west by the Al Awir Road (E 44) which however in that stretch is called Dubai-Hatta Road.
The Sector is part of the Dubai Non-Urban Area and contains sparsely populated communities, such as Al Awir, Lehbab, Al Meryal and Nazwah , and mostly desert and virtually uninhabited areas such as Al Wohoosh and Enkhali. For these reasons the sector is the least populated with a presence of just over 15,000 residents (2021 data).

Hatta - Sector 8
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/08/Hatta_03.jpg/310px-Hatta_03.jpg)
This Sector is located in the central-eastern area of the Emirate of Dubai and borders to the east with the Emirate of Sharjah and to the south with the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. The external border to the east and south coincides with the similar borders of the Desert Conservation Reserve of Dubai, which occupies much of the southern surface of the Sector. The Sector also includes the community of Hatta which constitutes an exclave of Dubai located in the Ḥajar Mountains. The land is part of the Dubai Non-Urban Area consisting mainly of desert terrain, conservation areas and non-urban settlements. Apart from Hatta and the communities north of the Warsan territory, and in part of Al Rowaiyah, the other communities are sparsely populated if not completely devoid of residents.
