Hello. If I may ask about Dunlavin. Is it a good town to commute to Dublin from? Is there an early train that can get me to city for 7am? Looking at renting a place there. Thanks for reading.

There's no train to Dunlavin and hasn't been since 1947. The nearest station would be Newbridge or possibly Sallins drive-time wise. There is one train from there arrives before 7am and one that arrives at.

I lived in Donard for a while - it's on the other side on the N81 from Dunlavin and about the same time and distance into Dublin. If driving, you would be looking at roughly 40 miles to the city centre with a journey time of up to 1 hour and 10 minutes (outside of rush hour traffic).

If driving, i'd advise the M9 and N7 from Dunlavin as the N81 is a horrible road to drive on at 6am on a dark winter morning (but about 35 miles as against the 40 on the M9/N7).
