🇮🇪 Where to live in Dublin

Dublin's residential areas run from the Georgian core and the cobbled pub quarter out through red-brick village suburbs and on to harbour towns on the coast. The inner areas put daily life within a few minutes' walk, while places like Ranelagh, Rathmines and Stoneybatter each hold their own high street and local character. Further out, Dun Laoghaire and Howth trade central access for piers, markets and cliff walks.
