Why the caveats matter

Every figure carries the publisher's own caveats. Where a statistic is published for a wider area than the one you clicked, or where the publisher itself flags it as unreliable, the page says so rather than quietly rounding it off.

What these terms mean

Disposable income
Income remaining after direct taxes (income tax, PRSI, USC) and social contributions are deducted -- the amount actually available to spend or save. Source
Persons at work

Before you use these figures

  • A modelled estimate, not a direct county survey: CSO does not survey household income at county level directly -- these figures are modelled estimates, allocating national and regional income data to counties using administrative and survey sources, and can be revised in a later release as those underlying sources are updated.
  • Latest figure: 2024 — 2 years old: This dataset is published annual and the publisher hasn't released anything newer. Nothing is missing from this page.
