Students in the city

Thu, Mar 25, 2021

Over the last few months there has been much discussion about the impact students are having on the city during lockdown. In normal times Galway has approximately 28,000 students attending a variety of third level colleges and language schools. Given that the last census in 2016 put the city's population at 79,504, students potentially represent 35 per cent of the residents. Obviously, many of these students are Galway natives and may be living in the family home, but a significant cohort are drawn to the city for college from further afield and need housing to live in for the academic year.

Naturally as we pass the one-year anniversary of our first Covid-induced lockdown, the city currently has less than 50 per cent of its normal numbers of student residents. While early on there was some talk that online learning was the way forward, it has become apparent that a blended approach is now more likely. However, what is very clear is that there is a huge appetite among students to return to Galway for the academic year 2021-22, subject to vaccine roll out and lockdown lifts. Having recently opened our booking lines, accommodation booked out quickly and we have large numbers of students on standby lists should vacancies arise. Twenty five per cent of bookings came from existing residents and the remainder from students looking to return to living in Galway.
