Location

A renowned heritage town in County Galway, c. 25 km east of Galway city, Athenry is known for its well-preserved medieval walls, castle and rich heritage that give the place its unique character. In recent years Athenry has also become a hub of exciting new economic opportunity with the arrival of the new Dexcom manufacturing facility — the company broke ground on a major €300 million facility here that is set to bring around 1,000 jobs to the town and wider region, spanning roles from engineering and quality assurance to finance and support functions. Combined with excellent transport links — including direct access to the M6 motorway and rail connections on the Galway–Dublin line — Athenry offers both a peaceful small-town lifestyle and real connectivity for commuters and families alike. Residents enjoy local amenities, schools, recreational options and strong community spirit, while its proximity to Galway city makes it a great place to live with both heritage charm and modern prospects on the door
