​DUBLIN

Hello, ​Dublin.

Dublin, the "Town of the Hurdled Ford", is a vibrant city renowned for its nightlife and classic pubs.

With more than 40% of the population under the age of 30, Dublin is a city teeming with youth, overflowing with energy and brimming with creativity. A night out in the pub remains the locals' favorite for hangouts with friends.

Cuisines from around the world can be found in this cosmopolitan city (Indian restaurants are concentrated around the South William Street area, and Chinese and Asian restaurants are concentrated at Parnell Street).

Women digital nomads will find that Dublin is generally a very safe city. However as in most other large cities, a few crimes such as muggings, unprovoked attacks, and robberies, have been known to occur in Dublin.

Treat Dublin as you would other European capital city, and be sensible: never walk in poorly-lit areas at night, especially alone. ​As Dublin center is relatively compact, be aware that walking a few blocks can take you into some bad areas. 

Certain parts of the city are pretty dodgy due to the presence of drug addicts and other questionable types, including north and northeast of Gardiner St and along parts of Dorset St, on the north side, and west along Thomas St, on the south side.

You won't find many digital nomads based in Dublin, as it is a city that’s expensive to live in. However, the city has numerous co-working spaces and coffee shops in the city center with free wifi.

The best time to visit Dublin is June through August when temperatures are warm​ and festivals fill the streets. It is also the most expensive time to visit Dublin as tourism is at its peak.

For good weather, manageable crowds, and lower prices, visit Dublin in April, May, or mid-September through mid-October.
