Which is the cheapest city to live in in Ireland?

Question

I''m hoping to spend a few months in Ireland next year, and am wondering which large city has the cheapest appartments or rooms to rent? Or are they all pretty similar?

I'm leaning towards Cork, or something near there.

Thanks!

Answer 1

They're all pretty expensive with Dublin being the worst.. accomodation is a lot cheaper in Galway than Dublin but i don't know about Cork. I know lots of people who live there and love it though.. haven't heard anyone say its particularly expensive!

Answer 2

Everywhere is pretty expensive.  Dublin would be more expensive than other cities, but not a lot more.

Answer 3

Try www.daft.ie or www.propertynews.com Both these give lettings and rentals all over Ireland with prices.

Answer 4

The word "cheap" isn't part of Irish society, EVERYTHING is overpriced, we even call it "Rip Off Ireland"!!

All major cities in Ireland are pretty much the same, i'm from Dublin, but it ain't as pretty as Galway, so many pretty sites to see and the towncentre is v quaint and has a lovely feeling:-)

Answer 5

I personally don't know that, but my niece lived in Ennis for a year and loved it.  I've heard Galway is neat too, along with alot of other places, I'm sure.......
