Postal Code Directions

Postal code areas in the Northside are odd, while Southside codes are even. An exception to the rule is Phoenix Park, which is on the Northside but has an even postal code 8.

The Northside is traditionally viewed as being the working class side, while the Southside was historically the wealthier and more artistic.

The Northside is bordered to the south by the River Liffey, to the east by Dublin Bay and to the north and west by the M50 motorway.
