Killarney

<h3>While Killarney made it through to the last five, in the end it was Waterford City which claimed the overall title of Best Place to Live in Ireland 2021.</h3>
While the city was the unanimous choice of the judging panel it had to beat off stiff competition from Killarney and three other shortlisted locations: Clonakilty, Co Cork, Galway city and the village of Glaslough in Co Monaghan.
 Among the things which impressed the judges about Waterford were its beautiful buildings, its liveability, its pedestrian friendly public space, its weather, and its easy access to the Comeragh Mountains and the Copper Coast.
 The Chair of the judging panel Conor Goodman congratulated Killarney on its fine showing in the competition.
 &ldquo;Given the level of entries and the extremely high standard of those entries, making it into the Best 5 Places to Live in Ireland really is a wonderful achievement which I&rsquo;m sure everyone in Killarney and Kerry is really proud of. We were delighted with the level of interest in the competition and would like to thank everyone who nominated a place or who engaged with us on it.&rdquo;
 The Irish Times Best Place to Live in Ireland contest, which is supported by Randox Health, began in June.
 In total 470 locations were nominated by more than 2,400 people from all 32 counties for the title of &lsquo;Best Place to Live in Ireland 2021&rsquo;.
