"Expats in Kenmare may find the local dialect and accents challenging to understand, as Irish English can be quite different from other forms of English. The slower pace of life can also be a challenge for those accustomed to a faster, more urban lifestyle. The weather, particularly the frequent rain and colder temperatures, can be difficult to adjust to. Some expats may also struggle with the rural nature of Kenmare, as it lacks the amenities and conveniences of a larger city. The Irish culture is also deeply rooted in tradition and history, which can be difficult for outsiders to fully grasp and appreciate. Lastly, while the Irish are known for their friendliness, it can still take time to form deep connections and fully integrate into the local community," said another expat in Kenmare, Ireland.
