Ennis (Irish: Inis, meaning Island) is the county town of Clare in Ireland. Situated on the River Fergus, it lies north of Limerick and south of Galway on the main N18 road connecting these two cities. Its name is a shortening of the original Inis Cluain Ramh Fhada ("Long Rowing Meadow Island"). The town is located only twelve miles from Shannon and Shannon Airport, which provides a large tourist business in the town.
The 2006 census indicates that Ennis had a population of 24,253 making it the largest town in Munster and the sixth largest town in Ireland. It is the 11th largest urban centre in the country and bigger than the cities of Kilkenny and Armagh. Ennis has a large number of foreign national people living in the town with nationalities including Polish, Slovakian, Czech, Nigerian, and Latvian.
