pardon me, but what exactly is a "drive by shooting" ?

i don't get the picture. i assume that blanchardstown is full of rich and fabulous people because of the huge shopping center and expensive houses. but why did some say it's depressing, has a high crime rate, and a difficult suburb with many social problems? isn't that quite contradicting?

There is a very large shopping centre...and a load of gangs. West Dublin in general is known for its high crime rates. It's a depressing place.

Blanchardstown shopping center, which does not compare to Liffey Valley except for the fact it has BT2, but then I can't afford anything from that place so Liffey is defiantly better.
It also has the national aquatic center. So basically a shopping center, a pool and really expensive houses.
The locals like to walk around in their pajamas all day and the crime rate is probably high but I think saying there are drive by shootings is a little exaggeration.

Hi there, about Blanchardstown or the blanch as its known to the locals there. Its a difficut suburb of Dublin with manz of the social problems associated with hard *** cities in europe and america. If I was to move there i would look out for those waring hoods and under the age of 24 their sole objective seems to be to make life verz difficult for anzbodz trzing to maintain a normal existance. Percentage=wise it§s 12 percent making life difficult for everzbodz. Sorrrz about the spelling mistakes but im wriniting on a Cyeck kezboard. Id go citz centre if possible. All the best and avfoid trouble.

Skangers & AJHs (Ah Jaysus Howeryas)
While it is very expensive by US standards still a poor part of Dublin.
