    I know it's appropriate to the County Forum but there's tumbleweeds blowing around there (maybe the 2 Forums should be merged??), so I thought I might get more feedback here...

    I may need to move to Dungarvan for at least 6 - 12 months and would be renting there. Any opinions on better / worse areas to live in?

    Sallybrook on the Clonea road side of the town, Spring Meadows or Tournore at the other side of town, Pairc na mBlaith in Ballinroad,... any opinions?!

    Well somewhere has to be the dodgiest part of the town, surely?

    I've never lived in Ballybeg in Waterford, but I know I wouldn't want to.

    Lovely people have come from and still live in those estates. But be realistic in fairness, those estates don't have a good name and with very good reason. A shame but unfortunately that's the way it is. Best avoided.

    Tournore is a lovely area. If I had a choice that's where I'd head. Great location in every way.
