Certain parts are a bit rougher than neighbouring Killiney
Hi there,
I live in Oakton Park, have done for 20 odd years and love it here. (From Shankill originally). All I can say is that I have never had problems living here... Oakton Park is a quiet mature estate. I've 2 girls and a son and they use the bus and Dart daily and without any problems. (including the Nitelink from town). They've lots of good pals in the area. They're are plenty of younger kids in the estate and have no probs with them.
They're have been a couple of burgalaries in the area over the years but where doesn't that happen?
I walk to Tesco several times a week and have never seen any sign of trouble (try looking around the streets of Dun Laoghaire for that!) but I think Coolevin might not be as quiet as here. I've no hesitation walking around this estate at night and we sometimes walk up along Church road to The Graduate (before the fire!).
Oakton Green is the same... it was built since I came here and it seems like a quiet road - my daughter knew a nice kid there and was often up and down to her.
I know that they're are areas off Shanganagh Road that gave the area a bad name in the past but it's never affected this side of Ballybrack.
Hope this helps?
