That’s pretty big set of different places… everything from cosmopolitan and sophisticated Ballina to the wilds of the Belmullet peninsula.
On *average*, though, gorgeous scenery, raw weather, and a higher than average number of sheep.

My Father, Grandfather and uncles use to buy a lot of cattle in and around that area. For whatever reason my one uncle just absolutely loved Castlebar. And this was in the 70s. No one knew why

I always expect people from Belmullet to have a distinct hairstyle.

Rugged, hilly, highest rainfall in the country, beautiful in parts.
Some of the nicest beaches I’ve seen if only we had the sun.
Vast areas are heather and gorse covered flatlands or bogs. Most of the rest is pretty hills and lakes.
Some nice touristy towns if you fancy food and pints.
Sparsly populated especially the interior of your circled area.
Friendly folks.
Some pretty islands just off the coast.

Depends where you’re coming from but generally speaking
High levels of precipitation with frequent rainfall and low light levels
Low population density
Beautiful, wild and very scenic
Poor agricultural land
Underdeveloped when compared to the east coast
Mainly agricultural and tourist based employment
Historically high levels of emigration
Can travel a long period of time and get nowhere on the map really

It’s one of the most beautiful parts of the country. Google “Downpatrick Head”, “Achill Island”, “Westport”.

Most of the circled area is sparsely populated , best beaches, walks, drives in Ireland. Some of the best towns for a night out and also the best place to live is here also!
The people are mentally tough, but salt of the earth. Wages are considerably lower and house prices higher than the rest of the country. Population doubles in summer because half the houses are holiday homes and while it’s great , leaves the place very empty come winter.
I personally love living here
