Liveability & safety● AREA · H91 / H91
Wider-area figures, not the town. Quality of life & rank are for the whole Eircode area each town sits in (GortH91, OranmoreH91); safety & crime are the Galway Garda division — so they read identically for both towns.

Affluence range

Pobal HP deprivation index — published per Electoral Division, so the spread shows the town's poorest to richest ED. A town that is a single ED shows one mark, no range.

Gort Below average-6.1
← more deprivednational avg · 0more affluent →
Single Electoral Division (Gort) — below the national average.
Oranmore Affluent+7.7
← more deprivednational avg · 0more affluent →
Spread across the town: Oranmore +7 (least affluent) → Clarinbridge +11 (most affluent). Even its least-affluent neighbourhood is above the national average.

How accurate is this, and at what level?

● TOWN
Prices, amenities & commute — exact, town-specific.

Prices come from individual PPR sales inside the town's Small-Area boundary; schools, GPs, transport, gyms and parks are counted the same way; commute is routed from the town centre. The figures the routing-key area page can't give you.

● ED
Affluence, profile & tenure — Electoral-Division level.

Pobal HP, third-level, class, unemployment, tenure are published per Electoral Division and averaged across the town's EDs — a range where the town spans several EDs (see the bar above).

● AREA
Liveability & safety — wider-area, not the town.

Quality of life and rank are per Eircode routing key; safety & crime are the Garda division (Galway) — coarser than a town, so two towns in the same county read the same.

Population & growth are loaded for ~7 counties so far (not Leinster yet); rent & yield are too sparse per town. Tap Schools or Affluence to drill in. Built from 29 CSO Small Areas.

The verdict

Oranmore is the stronger town on the data — it leads on 4 of the 7 dimensions to Gort’s 1, with 2 level: affluence, education levels, schools & amenities and access to its nearest city. Gort leads on affordability.

Higher is better on every spoke — affluence, education, amenity density, transport, safety, affordability and nearest-city access, scored head-to-head.
