Rathmines
Dublin,
Ireland
Rathmines (Ráth Maonais in Irish) is a suburb on the southside of Dublin, about 3 kilometres south of the city centre. Rathmines has thriving commercial and civil activity and is well-known across Ireland as part of a traditionally known "flat land" - providing rented accommodation to newly arrived junior civil servants and third level students coming from outside the city. In more recent times, Rathmines has diversified its housing stock and many houses have been gentrified by the wealthier beneficiaries of Ireland's recent economic boom. Rathmines, nonetheless, is often said to have a cosmopolitan air, and has a diverse international population and has always been home to groups of new immigrant communities and indigenous ethnic minorities.
