Abstract
This paper examines the growth and changes in population characteristics and
lifestyle in three towns in north Kildare which have come increasingly within
the influence of the Dublin Metropolitan area. The data used are primarily
obtained from three surveys carried out in the towns during recent years and
contrasts are made with previous work in the area. It is suggested that
community life still exists in these towns but that the effects of proximity to
Dublin are having ever greater impact on that life.
