Sector I-14
As Islamabad is a well-planned city, each alphabetically named sector is further subdivided into 4 phases. Each phase features a central commercial Markaz where people can shop for their basic necessities. Sector I-14, which is the next on our list as per our data records for the first half of 2019, is no different. It borders Sector I-13 to its east and Sector I-15 to its west, while being located on the edge of Islamabad, where it meets its twin city, Rawalpindi.

While being connected to the Grand Trunk Road and having its own commercial centre, Sector I-14 also offers high-quality educational institutions for both boys and girls, along with mosques and convenience stores. The sector is quite popular with university students due to the abundance of hostels that offer an easy commute to NUST, which is located nearby. Sector I-14 is also home to Riphah International University, making it an ideal dwelling for students.
Sector I-12
While Sector I-14 has been developed, the next sector on our list with residential plots under 6 million is Sector I-12, which is still under development by the Capital Development Authority (CDA).

In terms of facilities, the CDA will eventually develop the sector to match its neighbours, offering a central commercial Markaz, as well as schools, colleges, and hospitals for residents to benefit from. With Islamabad being a fairly greener city, the sector will also have its share of parks and other shared public spaces where residents can bond with a sense of community living.
