Cons: I usually go down town with my friends in cork and i see people doing sketchy or dodgy nearley every 2nd day, we usually dont take any notice on it but my point is that you probebly will see people doing something sketchy atleast once while your there. also the cost of living is deadly, and also the attitude usually in Dublin or Cork is too. Pros: Its pretty nice if you love cities.

Cork (and Ireland in general) flatters to deceive. They say Cork is safe and that Irish people are happy and friendly. This sadly is becoming a thing of the past. The only safe regions in Ireland are the west of Ireland. The attitudes of people in Cork and Dublin absolutely stink. Obviously it's better than living in Afghanistan but if you can definitely move out. The cost of living absolutely kills you. The biggest difference between a safe place like Spain for example and Cork is the mindset. You're greeted with a smile, hug or fist bump in Spain. In Cork it's a cold conserved stare, eyeing you up

Cork is pretty safe if you are aware of your surroundings and stay in the city. As long as you don't make yourself a target nothing will happen. There are a lot of people on drugs but you just ignore them and mind your own business and they will do the same. Bike theft is a big crime in Cork so just lock your bikes too and you'll be fine. I've never been robbed in Cork but I know some people that have..
