Hello
I am thinking of relocating to Ireland but I've heard from many people that the cost of living is very high. Does anyone have any insight into this?
Thank you.

Hi Phil, the cost of living in Ireland remains relatively high, but has gone down quite a bit in recent years. Dublin is still the most expensive city in Ireland to live. Accommodation and food are likely to be your biggest expense. I suggest you take a look at our page on the Cost of Living in Ireland for a breakdown of what you can expet to pay for your basic goods and services in Ireland, including a price chart of a basic basket of goods.
