MarketRent Prices 2026
Our Verdict
"The Grid"
With a median price of €24/m², this neighborhood is firmly in THE_GRID, representing a functional but expensive urban choice. Our neighborhood analysis suggests you're paying a premium for the postcode rather than the m² stats themselves, which can peak at €29.5 for units that aren't exactly palatial. The investment outlook remains strong for landlords because supply near the Limerick School of Art and Design is perpetually choked, but for a tenant, it's a high price for a lot of concrete.
The Vibe:The Market area is defined by the early morning clatter of delivery vans around the Milk Market and the functional, stone-heavy aesthetic of Mungret Street. It is an area where old-school Limerick commerce meets modern apartment living, dominated by people who value a five-minute walk to O'Connell Street over quiet nights. You’re right on the pulse of the 304 bus route, but you'll trade peace and quiet for that convenience.

Locals Ask
Is parking included in the €24/m² average rent?
Rarely. Most units in this cluster require a separate permit for a multi-story car park or a fight for on-street spots.
Are these apartments actually modern?
The top-end €29.5/m² price usually covers 'renovated' units, but many are 90s builds that struggle with dampness.
How loud does it get on weekends?
If you live near the Milk Market, the Saturday morning setup starts at 6:00 AM—expect noise from traders and vans.
Does the m² price drop near the cathedral?
Slightly, but the older housing stock there often offsets the savings with significantly higher heating bills.
Is it easy to commute to Dublin from here?
Yes, it’s an easy 10-minute walk to Colbert Station, which is why prices stay consistently high.
