Question

For the Irish people: where do you live in Ireland? Is it good to live here?

Answer 1

I used to live in Kildare. Now I live in Longford on the weekends and Dublin weekdays. I prefer the built up-ness of Kildare and Dublin but thats a personal choice. I liked being within minutes of shops and having the access of cheap public transport.

Each county has its own character and so I dont think you can go wrong picking any county in Ireland. Its easy to find one to match your personality.

Answer 2

better than anywhere elce

Answer 3

I'm from Wexford, but live in Dublin. I love it here - there's always something to do, and the infrastructure is much better than back in Wexford. It's very expensive to live here, and the weather can be miserable and depressing, but it's home to me and I can't imagine living anywhere else.

By the way - I saw your other question about the best place to live in Ireland - you'll get a load of biased answers depending on where the respondents are from. Each place has its good and bad points, and it really depends on if you want to live in a city or in the countryside.

Answer 4

Craggy island, my ancesters came from Youghaul near Cork

Answer 5

I live in County Galway and I love it ! ;)

Answer 6

I live in County Limerick, which is really nice and the people are quite friendly. The city of Limerick has a bad and largely undeserved reputation, it's actually got a thriving arts community that not too many people outside of Limerick are aware of.

Answer 11

I live in Lucan Co Dublin. It's nice enough, I can get a bus or train into Dublin city for €1.90, and the road to the west is just down the road.

But the traffic is just crazy, in Dublin, don't know if it's as bad in the rest of the country, but I like where I live as I am close to my family and a bus journey away from the best nightlife in the world...

Answer 12

I live in Limerick.

Yeah its gets bad publicity all the time but its really a good county with decent people and some funny characters.

I like it.

Answer 13

I live in the country outside the town of carrick on suir, i love it because you go out at the weekend and everyone knows each other so uve plenty people to talk to. Also its on the border of 4 counties half an hour in each direction will bring you to Clonmel, Waterford or Kilkenny so plenty choices for jobs!!
