    And where needs to be avoided?







    How about Clontarf, Irish town, Dollymount and Inchicore?


    (Just looked like good locations on the map)

    Cork St, Dublin 8 would be my advise. Live around the corner from it myself. Inchincore is good you have the Luas and several bus routes.

    It would be best if you gave us a price range we could work with and tell us more about your requirements.

    Yup, your budget will probably dictate the location choices.

    Personally I'm in the process of moving from Rathmines (D6) to Spencer Dock (D1) to be closer to the city centre where I work, and because I want to be within walking distance of that and Buses/Rail back home (Dundalk)

    Rent prices are generally coming down as well.

    Dollymount is actually the name of an area just off the Clontarf road,Dollymount Pk,Dollymount Ave etc.However you'll find almost nothing to rent there and its crap for shops,transport etc.

    I'd say Drumcondra. Cheaper than the south side, easy stroll into town. Lots of good places to eat and pubs and free tickets to Croke park if you happen to live close enough :)

    Really depends where you'll be working.
    No point renting in Dundrum of you're working in Swords.

    Clonskeah, the Ranelagh end, used to rent there and loved every minute of it, fantastic location.
