Wexford Commuting to Dublin- where to live?

    I would really appreciate your advice on the following. Having just recently returned from 3 years in London, where my partner and I continued a long term relationship- I've got a job in Wexford, near Enniscorthy (Ballymurn). The job will sometimes involve travelling to waterford (Cork Road). My partner works around Liffey Valley.

    Any advice on where to live that would be half way for us both? We're keen to live together again... Would rather favour easy transport links to Dublin- We are both from Galway and often go there at the weekends...

    Gorey would be your best bet,an hour (or less depending on traffic around Dublin) would take you to Liffey Valley.
    It's less than 20 mins to Ballymurn from Gorey using the R741 (avoids the traffic in Enniscorthy)

    There's also handy train and bus links from Gorey & even an early commuter train to Dublin.

    A friend of mine travels to Galway from Gorey regularly and he finds the quickest way is to head for Dublin and take the motorway West (M4/M6) ,it works out at about 3 hours.He used to travel via Carlow,Portlaoise and that took 4 hours.
