    The area is good and safe. Some parts of it mainly apartments were heard to be affected by pyryte other than that no issues. Generally not cheap neither.

    I don't know much about the Grangefield estate but I recently moved to Ballinteer (3 years) and absolutely love the area. A huge amount of greenspace, at the foot of the Dublin mountains, 15-20 mins from the sea. You'll have Lidl across the road, and Supervalu 5 mins away. You'll be a good 20+ min walk from the Ballaly Luas in Grangefield and busses do take a while to get into town unfortunately but the no. 16 terminus would be very close to you too.

    There are a tonne of sports/classes going on in Marley park and a good selection of schools too. Having Dundrum TC on your doorstep can be a bit of a pain around Christmas with tailbacks from the M50 but it hasn't been as bad in the last 2-3 years as it had been up to then. I'll take the good with the bad though!

    FTR I haven't experienced any social issues but there is news of the usual burglaries the odd time, I don't think that's out of the ordinary for any suburban area though.
