Montgomery Street Carlow

Ceatharlach

Hello I am wondering about what it is like to live on Montgomery street, in general is it a safe/quite area ?

I am inquiring on behalf of a young female who is looking to move and happened to see a property for letting on Montgomery street. But I really do not know much about the street, I have to say though that I walk up and down the street several times a week on my way from GraigueCullen to the Seven Oaks gym, and I must say the street seems to be fairly quite and inhabited by quite a lot of elderly people, but then again there are also quite a lot of flats/apartments on the street as well. In general would it be a safe area for a lone young female to walk around at night ?

Live near it and have to say anywhere on the Athy Road (or there/there abouts) I would consider quite safe.

i would agree ^^^^

with the seven oaks and Garda station opposite it there is often cars and the likes passing (not something riff-raff are fond of)

I live close to there myself and and never witnessed anything out of the ordinary. There are too many unfounded rumours about certain areas being dangerous.

always considered it to be a nice quiet place:)

safe but the end near the river is prone to flooding... seven oaks to halfway down the street should be good though but the rest will flood.

I lived on Montgomery St for 4 years... I lived on the flats on the left hand side going down to the river. It is very safe and quiet.
