However, the town offers a high quality of life with its clean environment, low crime rate, and friendly community. Kenmare has a temperate maritime climate, with mild winters and cool summers.

It also hosts several festivals throughout the year, including the Kenmare Lace Festival and the Small Roads Theatre Festival. Public transportation in Kenmare is limited, so having a car can be beneficial. However, the town is small enough to navigate on foot or by bicycle. Healthcare in Ireland is of a high standard, and Kenmare has a local health center. However, it's important for expats to have comprehensive health insurance, as medical costs can be high.
