    Hi ,

    I'm moving to cork with my wife . We are both from Dublin. What places would you recommend us to move to? We plan on a family soon so a nice safe family friendly area. I work in the city.

    Any other dubs please share your experience!

    Thanks

    Sorry about that :pac:

    Are you looking to have everything on your doorstep? Renting?

    Wilton/Bishopstown and Douglas-Both have everything on your doorstep. Affluent areas.

    Hi op

    I live in Rochestown and its a lovely area. It's close to Douglas which has lots of shops, restaurants, pubs and a nice park. Its also not too far from the city centre although traffic to both these areas can be heavy in the mornings. There are several good schools close by and most parks/housing estates in this area have ample green areas for kids to play. There's lots of nice places in Cork but I'm recommending this area as its the one I know best.

    My favourite areas would include Ballinlough, Blackrock, Sundays well or if you want to live rural but near the city Ballinora. Might want to be more specific about requirements.
