    I live in South Belfast and I could almost guarantee it's a better place to live than 99 percent of the Republic.

    where is the 1% of the republic that is/may be better in your view?! all depends on what kind of lifestyle one wants to live i suppose. have never stayed over night up north but planning to and travel around. could never imagine relocating there not that its an option but i suppose should visit there to confirm first.

    I'm kinda the opposite. I'm from the north but have worked down here in Dublin since the early 2000's but I'm considering a move back home. I'm not from Belfast but realistically its my best option for finding work in the north.

    BTW tax in the north is lower as far as I know. You don't move into the high tax bracket unless you earn over £100k.

    Ignore my previous post about the tax bracket, I was wrong, but you still will most likely pay less tax than in the republic.

    I moved back to the north last summer and I'm working in Belfast but not living there yet. I'm considering a move soon though, probably in the next couple of months.

    Having said all that, I kind of miss Dublin and I can see myself moving back at some point.
