Rent in Dublin getting crazy
The median home value here is around $514,900, which is pretty steep. Median household income is $155,282, which feels pretty solid for the area. Crime rate is something to consider -Dublin sits at 52.4 per 100K. You can expect to pay around $1,596 for rent here. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The weather takes some getting used to. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Easy commute
- Lots of new development
Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Limited public transit
- High property taxes
- Lack of diversity
- Mosquitoes and humidity
