Limerick ‘socially polarised’ says study
The study says the city is socially polarised with a high proportion of areas that are either more affluent or more disadvantaged than the average city.
“What is unusual is the way these areas are segregated in geographical terms. There is a “corridor of disadvantage” in the city extending from Moyross in the northwest through King’s Island to Garryowen, Prospect, Weston and Southill,” claims the new study.
