There are about 2,000 people living in the area and about 25% of those are native Irish speakers. Joyce Country lies west of the Lough Mask area, beyond the isthmus; a hilly region in the north of County Galway, extending into the southern part of County Mayo, traversed by green valleys and lonely roads.

Joyce family
One of the first of the family ("Seoige" in Gaelic) recorded in Connacht was Thomas Joy, who established a minor English lordship in northern Iar Connacht. His territory was the barony of Ross, contiguous to Killery Bay and extending from Cong river to the river. The family became Gaelicised and assimilated into the local Gaelic culture.
