It's dirt cheap. For the price of a 3 room HDB flat here, you can get a decent freehold landed property there. Just walk into the large shopping malls there like the Mall of the Emirates and you will be greeted by sales persons marketing various new property developments. In fact, I'm eyeing on a few properties there. Don't be too bothered by some kachang puteh explosions in the airport vicinity there. I have friends and clients residing there and they said that everything is fine in every other parts of Dubai.
