Would anyone have a rough idea of the number of residential dwellings there are in Abu Dhabi.

There's a lot of variation in the usual stats sites!

Cheers

Including individual apartments?
Yep.

It's for Abu Dhabi city rather than the entire Emirate.

From what I have found, it looks like there's about 950,000 people living in the city so a standard metric of around 2.4 per home would suggest around 400,000 properties. Does that sound right?

Thanks for the input chaps.

Seems that the assumption that the government does know is about right but estimates put the figure at around 350k to 380k so I wasn't far out.
