    Hi,
    I will move to Waterford soon and I am considering Tramore as a place to live. What do you think of this town?
    Is there any special area to avoid? What are the safer and quieter areas to rent a house?

    Regarding the secondary school, is it a good school? I saw that it is a boys and girls school now. Would it be good for a girl in the junior cycle?

    Thank you in advance!
    Andreia

    Hia Andreia.
    Ill try answer some of your questions...
    I love this town and you could not of picked a better place to move to.

    There is no areas here to avoid in Tramore, all are safe, friendly and will be welcoming to new inhabitants, Regarding the quieter areas to live, dont pick a holiday home or an appartment as it can be busy in the summer with tourists.
    Plenty of well established housing estates in Tramore... elmpark, summerville, newtown woods any area up in newtown, meadowbrook, clarinwood, everywhere in tramore is good except maybe closer to the beach and amusement park.

    Good luck

    Thank you very much! Really helpful as I really don't know anything about Tramore but I presumed it would be a quiet place (except for the summer with tourists)
    I am very excited to move to Tramore and hope to find a house soon 😊

    Thank you!

    No problem at all.

    I forgot to address your school question, my kids are not in secondary school yet, but I would have no reservations in sending them to ardscoil na Mara, its a newly built school with state of the art facilities. Most kids from Tramore and its surrounding area go there, but some parents send their kids to secondary school in Waterford city for various reasons.

    Tramore is my "adopted" home town, I moved here in 1999 with my daughter and still love it.
