hello all.

i have a job offer to move to Dublin. My concern is that with a family of 5 (all school aged), husband not working (at least initially)
- what would be minimum income to consider? i'd not want to be worse off or starve the kids.
- what are the family areas to look for a place to rent?

I've had some idea by looking up online but most of the information and responses are somewhat dated and would appreciate insight on the market right now.

Appreciate any feedback.

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

You can find out about the cost of living on the Numbeo website; this link will take you there.

With regards to working in Ireland, you will need a Work Permit before you are permitted to work in Ireland; this link will take you to a post regarding this; I strongly advide you to read that before you make any commitments.

Hope this helps.
