1. Population

1.1 Population Size(1)

The population size of the Emirate of Dubai is estimated by 2,105,875 individuals at the end of

2012, of whom 1,602,925 are males and 502,950 are females with rates of 76.12% and 23.88%

respectively of the total population. The higher proportion of males in Dubai community (319 Males per

100 Females) is attributed to the fact that the majority of expatriate workers are males who are not

accompanying their family members. Table 1 shows the distribution of the Emirate of Dubai population

by sex at the end of 2012.

1.2 Estimate of Active Individuals During the Day

The estimated number of active individuals during the day in Dubai are 3,148,915 individuals which

includes residents, individuals working in the governmental (federal, local) and private sectors in

Dubai and residing outside the Emirate, the average number of tourists and sailors in addition to

dynamic movement of people coming into and leaving the emirate during the day.

The increasing movement of people during the day is attributed to two main reasons:

The availability of various investment opportunities in Dubai which necessitate the daily

movement of people from other emirates to manage their own businesses or work for others.

The cheaper accommodation rates in neighboring emirates which lead public and private

sectors employees in Dubai to inhabit in these neighboring emirates.

2. Distribution of Permanent Residents by Age Groups

The age and sex structure of Dubai population is considered as unbalanced (unnatural). This

unbalanced structure is ascribed to the large proportion of foreign workers, most of which are

working-age males in particular, which is a result of rapid economic growth witnessed by the emirate.

This is shown clearly by Figure 2 which displays the population pyramid of Dubai at the end of 2012.

In addition, about two third of the population is concentrated in the 20-39 age group where the 30-

34 age group has the highest number of individuals 412,238 which represents 19.58% of total

population, followed by the 25-29 age group with 410,605 individuals and a percentage of 19.50% of

the population. Moreover, the 35-39 age group comes in the third place with 314,347 individuals and a

percentage of 14.93% of total population.

4. Distribution of Population by Communities

Collecting data about the distribution of population by communities is significant for planning

purposes. It provides facts that portray the picture of the population size in each region for planners

and decision makers which allows them to generate necessary plans and programs taking into

account the context of each community. This will help in meeting the needs of public facilities and

services of each of those communities.

As described in table 5 below, MUHAISANAH SECOND (264) has the highest number of population

with 163,211 individuals that represents 7.75% of Dubai population. This community is followed by

JABAL ALI INDUSTRIAL FIRST Area (599) with 109,167 individuals and a percentage of .18%.

Moreover, AL GOZE IND. SECOND (365) comes in the third place with a population size of 96,345

individuals and a percentage of 4.58% preceding the AL KARAMA Area (318) that has a population of

73,919 individuals and a percentage of 3.51%. These four Dubai communities together have a

population size of 882,642 individuals and represent 20.02% of the total population size of the Emirate

of Dubai. Those later figures can be explained by the presence of several labor accommodation

camps in the mentioned above communities.
