I've spent my fair share of time in Woodlawn. Most of the kids there are college age.

Ireland is an advanced country with an advanced economy with low crime. The kids that go there come from nice backgrounds, mostly. Its not what people think it is.

Irish OC is basically dead. The Irish descendants here identify as American. They are suburban kids. When you grow up as an Irish American kid, fourth or fifth generation, you identify as an American kid with American friends. There will never be another westies, and thats a great thing.
