Best Answer

Irish people were in Ireland, not Scotland. However, the western part of Scotland is nearest in proximity to the island of Ireland, making that area of Scotland a popular point of arrival for Irish emigrating from Ireland to Great Britain over the years.

Scottish cities with the largest number of residents of Irish ancestry are: Dundee, Edinburgh, and Glasgow.

The first sentence of this answer is not needed. That's not what the questioner meant.
