    I'd avoid Jobstown, Fortunestown etc, basically anything west of The Square and North of the N81. Best areas are Kingswood and Belgard.

    If you find something you're interested in, drive around the area at a few different times of evening/night to see what it's like, that's your best bet.

    Saggart is grand. So is Rathcoole.

    If I were you I would rent in the area before you buy.

    There are a few decent areas, but I'd question if you are relying on public transport whether Tallaght is your best bet for work in Ballsbridge or Sandyford.

    There is no DART, and while there is a LUAS it won't help with either of those places.
