Yours will be pretty straight forward as an EU citizen as far as rights of residency is concern.
There is job opportunity if you have a good CV/qualification.Anyway be specific on what you want to know.

Although i don;t live in Ireland,i do know much about the country from Economy,politics,education etc.I know rent is expensive.For example,a 2/3 bed house in Cork is about 1200-1500 euros.
There are jobs if you have the right credentials/experience,the immigration sucks especially for non EU(changes on the way).

Read between lines,Shannon and Cork are two different cities and in different counties.I said 2/3 bed house and not appartment.
Dublin and Cork are the manufacturing, financial, and commercial centres of Ireland

There are KGs but don;t know the rates.You can work and school it all depends how flexible you are.
They have a generous welfare system,CB for 2 kids is 332 Euros p/month.
Yes there are appartments,the rents are on the high side but there are ways around it which i can;t paste here(sorry)
Do you have a non-EU moving with you ?

Re: Dublin by bigkayy(m): 2:55pm On Aug 10, 2008
Folks
I've been living in Ireland, Dublin to be precise for 8 years, just to clarify on the cost of house rent, cost ranges between Euro1,000-5000 in Dublin depending on where you want to rent and the no of bedrooms. visit www.daft.ie

Although,rent is relatively cheaper if you are considering renting in other counties.


brownbonno:

Child care can be quite daring, expect to pay at least 100-150 Euro weekly towards child care. visit http://www.giraffe.ie/index.htm


brownbonno:


There are jobs if you have the right credentials/experience,the immigration sucks especially for non EU(changes on the way).

Rightly stated, there are loads of good, highly paid job, but if you qualify outside Europe, especially Nigeria qualifications, it  might be a bit daunting to get your qualification recognised, hence limiting your chance of practising on your field.

I beg to differ that Irish immigration sucks, although there are bunch of laws that are not particularly immigrant-friendly but I reckon such laws are widely available in every countries of the world that has witnessed high level of immigrants turn-out.

@bigkayy,
Thanks for the lights.
About the immigration sucks,i was referring to the pains/agony the DoJ made family members of EU citizens go through to enable them a stay or issuance of residence card.It came to a ridiculous point that deportation order was issued to such EU family members.Thanksfully,a new ECJ decision(25/07/08)have cleared the air.

Thou art welcometh

Yeah, the DoJ just chanced their arms, they are perfectly aware of the fact that their interpretation of EU directive on free-movement of people wont stand the test of ECJ, the section 3(2) which was the bases of refusal of residence card to EU spouses is not but a baseless excuse, now DoJ have been told by ECJ that instrument 3(2) is not legally valid and hence had been revoked.
Am very much pleased for all the affected parties.

Re: Dublin by ayomifull(f): 1:39pm On Aug 11, 2008
@ Lina how many children do you have and will you be able to take care of your financial need unti you are able to secure a job? Being an EU citizen you can move in freely, look for job and continue with life. If knowing someone is the problem i can be of help, i reside in Ireland and can assist you with more info needed. Though i work full time i can still create some time to help out a lil bit. If you are serious and sincere i can offer you a room for 2 weeks for free after which you have to get a place. My cousin(UK citizen), just moved over to Ireland from UK he got a job a week after he moved here, he stayed in my house for a month and has now got a place for himself u can reach me on ayo.ayomikun@yahoo.ie
Re: Dublin by ayomifull(f): 1:41pm On Aug 11, 2008
@ Nurud, how are you coming in as a work permit holder or student on study permit or on visiting visa? Will be able to advise if i know the answer to these questions. It could be really great living here and it could be fristrating it depends.

   Dear, what do you expect, what should i say smiley? Honestly, it's not about me, that i said "i wonder how compatible things would be", but rather for her convenience. How many women, (married ones) would feel safe or comfortable staying with a man, (a strange one) in a new country undecided?

   Do you really want to travel to Nigeria, do you have a host or a guide there?
   If not, i can host you: though i live in Dublin, but i'm frequently in Nigeria, and if however i'm scheduled to be in Europe or Canada at the time of your visit, i can alternatively make adequate arrangement for you by my younger brother.
   If you have a better plan, then it's well. But if you buy my idea, then let me know and i'll contact you via email.
   Ultimately, if you don't feel it's safe or if you don't think it's an ideal, then FORGET IT.
