Answer 8

I have family in South Armagh and the countryside is breathtaking.

I live in an area called Pimlico in The Liberties in the south Inner City of Dublin, although we dont have beautiful scenery! The area is steeped in History, We have Guinness's beside us and Saint Patricks and Christchurch Cathederals, and Saint Catherines Church where Robert Emmet was beheaded.

The area has a real vibe in it and its one of the last surviving true Dublin communities.

Answer 9

I live near swords in Dublin, and it is a shithole

ITS DERRY NOT LONDONDERRY

Answer 10

I'm American, living in Austin, Texas, but I'm familiar with Ireland; I've been there twice. Thank you for asking the question of the people of Ireland, North and South though--the replies are pretty fascinating!

I agree with the poster from London/Derry though--Stroketown does have, by all accounts, a thriving artistic community, and it has some of the most dramatic history on the island.

I always felt the most at home in Kildare though...a sleepy little farm town that is now going through great change due to the housing costs in Dublin and of course the population influx. Though if I ever do emigrate (and I've considered it many times over the years), I'd probably choose Cork or Galway. I'm a musician (I play Irish harp), so I'd need to stay where there's a profitable music scene.
