Housing in Dhubri is a mix of traditional "Assam-type" houses—characterized by sloping tin roofs, wooden frames, and bamboo or brick walls suited for earthquake-prone regions—and modern Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) structures.
As urbanization increases, low-rise apartment buildings and commercial-cum-residential complexes are becoming more common in the city center. Land prices and rental costs in Dhubri are moderate compared to larger cities like Guwahati, though premium areas near commercial hubs (like Boro Bazar) command higher prices. Affordable housing initiatives by the state and central governments are active in the suburban and peripheral wards.
