    Ah sure it's better than having to change bus I suppose.

    It's personal experience in my part lads,

    Mate of mine was surrounded by scumbags down in cherrymount so I dunno maybe it's grand

    ballybeg and larchville I'm sure don't need an explanation.

    Houses in templers hall look fine but I'm sure being surrounded by students might put someone off

    apartments in and around the quay I have lived in for 2 years and IMO it's a nightmare espically over there where aldi is and around. Again, just personal opinion.

    If you drive op best stick with dunmore road and I thought lismore park was fine when I lived there.

    And yes, one of these :) usually means a joke k?
    you quoted this a few months ago as well i live in cherrymount for 11 years and am rearing a family here with no problems just cause 1 of your friends had hassle it dosent mean the lads were from here . thats giving my neighbourhood a underserved bad name imo

    He tends to give a lot of neighborhoods a undeserved bad name not just cherrymount.

    That's fair enough,

    I did say there that maybe it's grand and I'm not from Waterford City so I only go in my own experience about a place ya know? Hearing about the chaps experience kinda put it in my head for years.

    I retract the statement about cherrymount.

    The OP asked areas that we think he should avoid and taking away cherrymount that i admit was an (wrong) opinion I had based on a mates experience I stand by everything else I suggested there.

    There are better areas to stay then Larchville, Lisduggan, Ballybeg, templers hall and the apartments down by the quay. I didn't make any comments about the estates or places only that I wouldn't stay there for the reasons quoted. To say that I'm giving these place a bad rep is a major jump.

    If you never lived in any of these estates,what makes you such an expert?There are a few gurriers as there is in every estate but I lived in one of those estates for 20 years and never had any hassle.If you make statements like these I suggest you rent a house in one of mentioned estates for 1 year and then make your comments based on your experience.Some of the best people in Waterford came from these so called places to avoid.

    I never said I was an expert and I certainly never said anything about people living there with the exception of students in templers hall, it's just my opinion that I personally wouldn't live there given the choice,

    In all honesty I wouldn't live in any part of town again, I enjoy the country life!
