South Dublin.
I lived there for 6 years.... since moving to the city centre (2012) people actually say hello and actually SMILE!!!!
I rarely have to go back to south Dub - and even when you go into a shop or café and even say "please" and "thank you" - you get a dirty look!

Wherever I am

Castlebar12

westport, the snobbery is unreal, the natives are fine but its all the blow ins or the ones who moved to England when they were young and then came home to their favorite place in the whole world

Mayo. Full of grabbing inbreeding hobbits who think mayo is the only place in the weshest of ireland.

I did the wild Atlantic way for my hols after a day in mayo we gave up on it and headed south, pity as some great scenery but the people are a blight on the landscape, even in Ashford castle the attitude the world is only mayo was ridiculous. Any I nor my gf will be returning to the only county in the weshest,

Sad people, Beautiful scenery

I have to go along with this Cork thing.
My friend is in the army in Dundalk and he keeps mentioning this Cork lad, apparently they can't even take a slice of ham from the kitchens or yir man is hanging them out to dry to who-ever will listen to him, apparently he's a big mouth crying fcuk..
And if they tell him to relax, all he says is... 'I don't geeve a fcuk about none ee yee'!?

In my experience of the people I've met, Dublin people are the most horrible.I'd be lying if I said otherwise.

Dublin people, all of them. They'll either be wearing tracksuits or just suits.

Have you lived in a deeply rural area in Donegal? I think it is the limited gene pool

I've lived in deeply rural Donegal my whole life and strongly identify with it, even though I'm at college. Not entirely sure where you were but I don't agree at all.

Eh, have you not been reading the thread at all? Right now, Cork seem to be in the lead with the most votes, with Donegal coming in a close second.

The posts are from just the first couple of pages FFS.

Another vote for cork and also scabby Cavan ***** !

Votes pretty evenly split between Cork and Donegal. All is as it should be, carry on...

I had the misfortune of having to live with Cork lads in college. Each 1 a bigger arrogant wanker than the next. Any civilised individual would be too ashamed of that accent to actually open their mouths but not these *****. At least Dublin people had the decency to stay in Dublin but Cork just infested the place like Ebola.

The problem with cork people is that they genuinely think cork is the centre of the universe. Cork gaa fans are the worst.

What was that again about people from other counties not liking ye?

Dublin wins this contest hands down. Well done Dublin on having the most horrible people.

I lived in Inishowen. Where I lived people were lovely and friendly. I will admit that they all had the same last names.

When I was in Glenties and around that area the people were all very strange. very insular and didn't like outsiders.

The thing is that Inishowen is well over an hour, maybe two hours from Glenties. These areas are all very detached from each other. They might as well be Longford and Wicklow.

Kerry! Love kerry! I only mentioned Donegal and Cork! Plenty other places in Ireland!Stop exaggerating! Clearly you are from Cork or Donegal or both!

And loved Mayo even though they were inbred they were kind....

Yep, a lot of people don't realise the size of Donegal. Can take hours to get from one side to the other, road surface doesn't help though.

Hail from Inishowen myself

South Wicklow - Give it to Wexford plz

West Wicklow - Give to Kildare immediately

As a Corkman I was going to instinctually post Dublin - but that would have been more reactionary than fair. I once stayed with some people in Cabra and everyone I met was very nice. So there are pockets of human decency in Dublin.

Thinking about it long and hard for me it is Donegal. Particularly once north of Ballyshannon. Everyone seems to be a cross between Eric Cartman, the Banjo Player from Deliverance coupled with the most obnoxious control freak you ever met.

They are also incredibly insular and will accept no wrongdoing of any kind takes place in their county. It is always someone else fault. If you want to murder someone in Donegal, the Guards won't investigate you unless you are from another county.

Love the way Donegal folk don't give a **** about what the rest of the country does actually.

Surprised with so many Donegal responses, I know a good few Donegal people, and have always found them lovely. I love the accent, and always found them to be really friendly and warm, great craic - always joking about, extremely chatty and very decent/fair people really. Well the one's I've met have been anyways!:)
Can't think of anywhere that has "horrid" people as a majority.
As has been said there are pricks everywhere but I think most people are generally nice.

They are confident and do their own thing a lot.
It sounds like a jelously thing more than anything else, must visit and make my own mind up sometime.

I once worked in a job where I had to talk to people from all over the country, I talked to so many people that eventually i could almost tell what way the phone call was going to go based on the address that came up on my screen. of course there were lovely and horrible people every where but there were too distinct areas that without fail had people that were very awkward to deal with. In terms of people who just were not nice, had no manners and were out to gain whatever they could, ballincollig was by far the worst area. so, not all of cork, just the area of ballincollig. 
the second is not an area in ireland but a nationality living in Ireland and that was people from Nigeria, they are nice people generally but they are hard to deal with because each emotion they experienced effected them 100 times more than anyone else. when they are happy they are really really happy but on the other side when they are angry they are furious, it was overwhelming at times no matter what emotion you encountered!

Intresting observations

Haha, I know it well. Initially with this thread I was being all sensible and thinking people are the same proportion of nice/nasty anywhere, but this point has made me rethink: I totally know what you mean. There genuinely is a bit of an attitude emanating from the 'Collig.
