County Louth is a county on the east coast of Ireland, on the border with Northern Ireland. The county town is Dundalk, which is also the largest town in Louth. The majority of the county's population live in either Dundalk or Drogheda. The 2006 Census confirmed Dundalk and Drogheda as not only the largest towns in the county, but also the second and third largest towns in Ireland. Drogheda has a population marginally larger than that of Dundalk. This however, includes areas and suburbs of Drogheda which lie in County Meath. County Louth is affectionately called "the Wee County" being the smallest county in Ireland having a total area of only 821sq kilometres (317sq miles).
