Cairo Governorate
New Cairo
New Cairo is one of Egypt's most sought-after suburbs — home to major compounds, international schools, and Cairo's business district.
Overview
Located east of central Cairo and spanning roughly 70,000 feddans, New Cairo combines residential compounds, commercial hubs, and the American University in Cairo. Developed in the late 1990s as part of the New Urban Communities program, it has grown into one of Egypt's primary upscale residential markets.
Schools & Education
New Cairo hosts many top international schools including AUC, Cairo American College, Modern English School, Choueifat, and the German School (DEO). Most compounds sit within a 10–20 minute drive of these schools.
Commute & Access
Commute to downtown Cairo is typically 30–45 minutes via the Ring Road or Suez Road. The New Administrative Capital and Ain Sokhna are both within 45 minutes via the regional ring. Cairo International Airport is 20–30 minutes away.
Infrastructure & Services
Major retail destinations include Cairo Festival City, Point 90, and Downtown Mall. Medical services are anchored by Dar Al Fouad and Saudi German hospitals. The area is fully covered by fiber internet and municipal water/power utilities.
