How we calculate

The social fabric here is thin: cohesion scores 3.6, while amenities rank among the country's stronger at 8.8. On €28,000 of income per resident and 43 per cent owner-occupation, this is a lower-income, rental-heavy district. Four in ten households live alone. Average value stays below the national median at €291,000, though supermarket, school and GP all fall within a kilometre.
