What should I know about living near the Abdoun Corridor?
A road network built by the Greater Amman Municipality in Abdoun connecting South and West Amman with the Airport Road and downtown, using Prince Hussein bin Abdullah and Princess Basma streets and tunnel sections.

Nearby, in Abdoun, two-bedrooms rent for JD 1,085 a month and apartments ask JD 1,200 per m²; in Um Uthaina, two-bedrooms rent for JD 1,000 a month and apartments ask JD 1,060 per m²; in Jabal Amman, two-bedrooms rent for JD 850 a month (Hagzi asking prices, 10 October 2026).
