Not just students. I’ve a place to live until Sept next year, and I’m already sweating.
How are universities going to function with this kind of lack of access to student housing? We seem to have incentivised building of it with big tax breaks, but it’s still totally inadequate – access to on campus / near campus at cost accommodation should be part of the setup at a university. It should be at a controlled rent and restricted to students, researchers and staff.
Housing situation in [insert county] leaving [insert group] ‚exhausted, broke and angry.
It’s almost like the majority of people that vote don’t care about anyone but themselves.
The worst part is we’ve just accepted it.
It’s gone from almost toppling the government to I can’t vote for Sinn Fein, it can’t be fixed overnight to..acceptance? And acceptance that it’ll only get worse?
We’re lot more like North Korea etc than people like to admit the way we bow down to the almighty government
Galway is only starting to feel it Cork, Waterford, Limerick and Dublin have been feeling it for years..
I’m always amazed when Rté thinks its discovered something new when in reality have been supporting the politicians and party’s that have created this very situation..
Rté rageposting because they want to distract us again at FF/FG request..
I left Ireland, and specifically Galway, in 2015 because of the early onset symptoms of the housing crisis. Rents were already making my friends and I sweat a bit. It’s absolutely staggering ineptitude and a complete collapse of the social structure that this is still going on 10 years which our government flip-flops between two cheeks of the same arse, while I’m effectively economically exiled from my home town. I hate the Irish government so much.
lots of vacant office space, but no, return to office instead.
We need to stop giving foreign student visas until we have enough accommodations. It’s shameful we let Universities create an even worse housing crisis, just to make a fortune on foreign.
It’s literally the same articles every September is it ever going to get better 😩
Cork also.
Couple.. above 150.. with kids and pets.
We can’t find a single house to take us.
Prices for something that would fit us are 2500-3000 per month.
Maybe time to move abroad and work remote.
I have my son hopefully getting offered a place in ATU tomorrow. I am going to make it work for him but have explained I may not be able to help him as much down the line as I expect to have to pay between 12/15k per year. €500 grant is what he will get. I have a decent paying job but not wealthy. This will clean me out tbh over the next few years. Shouldn’t be so.
Uni’s need to be reigned in and better funded by gov. Too many cash cow courses (especially in IT, AI, analytics, data sci etc) milking foreign students for fees to raise money. Number of overseas students should be linked to number of student accomodation places the college can provide.
