Due to the nature of the area, Victory Heights is known as a place where there are functional layouts and abundant greenery, parks, and championship golf courses nearby. However, due to its location in Dubai Sports City residents will need to commute to access certain central urban parts of the city. 

The traffic congestion near the Al Khail Roundabout could cause delays. There are also very few retail outlets and malls nearby. Some communal facilities are yet to open and there is ongoing construction surrounding Victory Heights which might make it slightly congested to move around inside the locality.
