Ballyogan

Ballyogan is a primarily residential suburb located in the southern part of Dublin, Ireland. It falls within the administrative area of Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown County Council. The area is relatively modern in its development, much of its housing constructed in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

Ballyogan is known for its proximity to the Dublin Mountains and the presence of the Ballyogan Recycling Park, a significant waste management facility serving the wider Dublin area. Public transportation includes Dublin Bus routes, providing access to the city center and other suburban locations. Local amenities include shops, schools, and recreational facilities catering to the residential population.

The origin of the name "Ballyogan" is likely derived from the Irish language, although the exact meaning and etymology are less widely documented compared to other place names in Dublin. Historically, the area was largely agricultural land before its transformation into a residential area.
