What the sales say

The kind of place Rathfarnham is

Read out of the sales themselves. None of this is a description of what Rathfarnham is like to live in, which we have no way of knowing. It is what changed hands here.

  • Still being added to

    32% of sales since 2016 were new builds, so building has carried on here rather than stopped.

  • Houses much of a muchness

    The dearer end of the middle half of sales went for 1.44 times the cheaper end, which is a narrow band. Places built as estates look like this, because the houses really are much the same.

  • Dearer than Dublin

    The median here was 41% above the county median in 2025.

  • A steady market

    63 sales counted in 2025. Enough changes hands for the figures to hold up.

Incidents at Rathfarnham Garda station

Incidents recorded by this station across the district it covers, which is wider than the town it is named after. These are counts and not rates: there is no population figure here to divide by, so they cannot be used to compare one place with another. What they can show is the direction of travel in this one place.

How the place was worked out

The register has no town column. It has an address, and the place is read out of it: the county is stripped off and the part left at the end is the locality. Addresses that end in a street name rather than a place are not counted towards anywhere.

A place appears here only where at least forty sales were recorded in it, and a figure is printed for a year only where at least ten sales sat behind it.
