St Margarets Neighbourhood Guide
Dublin
About St Margarets
St Margarets is a semi-rural north-west Dublin locality in the K67 area, lying between Dublin Airport, Finglas, Ballymun and the countryside towards Kilsallaghan. It has a village-and-rural character, with established homes, farms and equestrian land sitting alongside newer housing and employment areas such as Northwest Business Park. Everyday life is quieter and more spacious than in inner Dublin, although the locality is close to major roads and the airport. Families have access to local primary schooling, while secondary schools and larger education choices are found in neighbouring areas including Finglas, Swords and Blanchardstown. Commuters generally rely on cars or buses, with the M2, M50, N2 and Dublin Airport providing convenient regional connections; rail and Luas services are not within the locality itself. Shopping is centred on nearby villages, retail parks and larger centres, while pubs and casual food options are available around St Margarets, Finglas and the airport corridor. Green space, walking routes and community-based sporting activities are important locally, with St Margaret’s Golf and Country Club and nearby GAA facilities among the better-known amenities. The area suits residents seeking a countryside setting within reach of Dublin City, while aircraft activity and limited local public transport are practical considerations.
