Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Ireland accepting of differences?
When we asked people about diversity in Ireland and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...
"Ireland is a diverse nation made up of people from many backgrounds and cultures. While Irish society is predominantly white, recently there has been an influx of immigrants from places such as Africa, Eastern Europe, and Asia, who have been embraced with open arms by local communities. People in Ireland are highly accepting of diversity and strive to create an inclusive and safe space for everyone, no matter their race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or immigration status," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Ireland.
"The Irish are very accepting of other cultures. You'll hear some people complain about the loud, obnoxious groups of Spanish tourists, or the taxi drivers of other nationalities, but for the most part, in my experience they are very tolerant," commented one expat who made the move to Dublin, Ireland.
