Tannaghmore North
Tannaghmore North sits in a quiet, rural part of the Lurgan area, surrounded by neighbourhoods that share a strong family feel and a settled, community atmosphere. Schools are a real strength here, with Lurgan College, Ceara Special School, St Ronan's College and several primary schools all close by, giving families plenty of choice without needing a long commute. Crime runs well below the Northern Ireland and UK averages across the surrounding wards, and where it's been higher historically, such as in Shankill, the trend is now firmly downward. Air quality is consistently good throughout the area, adding to the appeal for anyone wanting a calmer pace of life.
Living costs are a clear draw, with council tax, utilities and grocery bills coming in well under the UK average across every neighbourhood nearby. Rents stay affordable too, particularly for families after more space, and the rental market shows steady, modest growth rather than sharp rises. A car is pretty much essential for daily life, as amenities within the immediate area are modest, but good road links and, in places like Parklake and Lough Road, nearby railway stations make commuting into Lurgan, Portadown or Belfast straightforward.
Day-to-day amenities vary a little from one neighbourhood to the next. Parklake and Shankill offer closer access to GPs, dentists and shops, while Aghagallon and Derrytrasna lean more rural, relying on nearby towns for restaurants, supermarkets and healthcare. What ties the whole area together is that strong sense of community, whether that's through local pubs and parks, religious buildings, or simply the quieter rhythm of rural living. For anyone after affordable, family-friendly living with easy access to larger towns, Tannaghmore North and its surrounding neighbourhoods tick those boxes well.
