Hi. I'm from Dunlavin. I'm heading down to see the folks this weekend. I agree with you in a way - it's gone down the pan in the sense that the best pub (Teach de Grás) closed down, there's no filling station anymore and there seems to be an ever increasing drug/crime problem. It's become a bit lifeless and drab.
Still though, I still love walking 'round Tournant Upper, visiting Rathsallagh House and catching up with the locals.

My uncle used to have a bakery in Dunlavin, was never busy enough to survive there though. Nice little town.
