Living in Dublin



Dublin is a larger medium-sized city located in the state of California. With a population of 72,060 people and ten associated neighborhoods, Dublin is the 122nd largest community in California. Much of the housing stock in Dublin was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Dublin economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents. This seems to be the case in Dublin, where the median household income is $191,039.00.

Dublin home prices are not only among the most expensive in California, but Dublin real estate also consistently ranks among the most expensive in America.

Also of interest is that Dublin has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 27.24% of people work from home. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce it is high relative to the nation. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

One thing noticeable about Dublin, although not a huge city, is that it has a large population of people who are young, single, educated, and upwardly-mobile career starters. That’s because Dublin is full of single people in their 20s and 30s and who have undergraduate or graduate degrees and are starting careers in professional occupations. This makes Dublin a pretty good place for young, educated career starters looking to find many people like themselves, with good opportunities for friendships, socializing, romance, and fun.

One downside of living in Dublin, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 35.00 minutes every day commuting to work. However, local public transit is widely used. For those who would prefer to avoid driving entirely and leave their car at home, it may be an option to use the transit instead.

Although the majority of commuting trips in the city are by private automobile, Dublin is somewhat unusual for a city of its size for having a substantial number of people who use public transportation. For a lot of people, the subway helps to get to and from their jobs every morning, which benefits everyone in the Dublin area by reducing both traffic and air pollution.

If knowledge is power, Dublin is a pretty powerful place. 68.88% of the adults in Dublin have earned a 4-year college degree, masters degree, MD, law degree, or even PhD. Compare that to the national average of 21.84% for all cities and towns.

The per capita income in Dublin in 2018 was $76,941, which is wealthy relative to California and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $307,764 for a family of four.

Dublin is an extremely ethnically-diverse city. The people who call Dublin home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups.
