THE DEFINITION OF LUXURY AND EXCELLENCE   1من اصل2

New Cairo   is one of the biggest and   most sophisticated neighborhoods in
Greater Cairo. It is located east of Cairo, and it includes many residential
areas, most notably Fifth Settlement, First Settlement, and Third Settlement
which are among the first areas to be populated. Continuously being
developed, New Cairo emerged in the recent years offering an alternative
lifestyle to that of the overcrowded cities .
It is common to call New Cairo ”The Fifth Settlement”, however, the
reality is that the Fifth Settlement represents only a very small area inside
New Cairo. The city is very well planned in Egyptian standards; however,
many people complain that the city is already getting crowded specially
around the 90th road which is the central hub of New Cairo.
Because of its elevation and the fact that it is not as congested as Cairo,
New Cairo enjoys much cooler weather. New Cairo is mostly calm with
low population density, and it contains a number of private universities and
schools. Some roads are still unpaved in the newer areas but they are
expected to be finished so on. One of the drawbacks of New Cairo is the
outrageous property prices which are mostly fueled by high demand. The
majority of New Cairo neighborhoods offer upscale and luxury level
housing; however, there are still several areas that offer middle and upper-
middle levels of housing, and areas like Third Settlement has pockets of
economic housing offerings.
