Irish public data, by county
StatsMapped

New dwelling completions for every Irish local authority, ranked from highest to lowest, from official public data.

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.

Before you use these figures

  • A completion means an ESB connection: CSO counts a dwelling as complete when it is connected to the ESB network for the first time. This is a proxy, and it has edge cases: a home vacant long enough to be disconnected can appear as a completion when it is reconnected, and a finished dwelling not yet connected does not appear.
  • Seasonal — compare year on year: Completions cluster toward the end of the year, so quarter-to-quarter movement largely tracks the building calendar. Only year-on-year change is flagged for these series.
  • Small authorities swing on single schemes: In a smaller local authority one apartment scheme finishing can double a quarter's total on its own. Percentage changes are large and ordinary at this level, and describe construction scheduling more than housing policy.
