That's nonsense. As in simply not true. There's corporation housing behind some of Lower Kimmage Road, but none on it (bar about three houses on a brownfield redevelopment site built in the last half dozen years: they may be council owned), and a few less savoury kids hang around outside the Esso garage sometimes (and as I've mentioned elsewhere), but they're not generally a problem.
Not that I have anything against corporation housing - but there is a big corporation area between Sundrive cross road and the KCR. All the little feckers from the housing estates hang around there because that's where the shops, chippers and everything else is.
I'm all for giving people the cons as well as the pros, but frankly the kids from Poddle Park don't hang around on Lower Kimmage Road, and the Four Roads is a very different area as well. I don't drink in the "local" pub because I don't much like it either - but no-one I know on the road does drink there. I've never been entirely sure who it's a local for...As for the question - is it Crumlin or Kimmage (which used to be the cheapest and second cheapest places on the monopoly board) - well it doesn't really matter.
If you like plenty of action and excitement in you life - not always for the better - go for it.
There's no Dublin Rd in Dublin, no Navan Rd in Navan or Ennis Road in Ennis. By definition if a road has the name of a place in it's name it's because it's the road to there, it isn't in the place itself.
Going by your rekoning Newbie - dolphins barn is also a hop skip and a jump into town, has a community feel and also contains lots of young people
