The Census 2022 data shows a surging population but a State struggling to provide homes for it, writes Simon Carswell

The Central Statistics Office was at pains to stress the initial figures are simply summaries of the headcount data for population and housing. A more detailed analysis of what the census figures actually mean will not be available until fuller data is published next year.

The average annual natural increase in the population was 28,556 a year in the last six years, compared with 39,656 in the previous five years. It will be next year before the CSO can provide a more detailed breakdown to understand the difference in the two periods. The concentration of the population growth has been, unsurprisingly, in the east of the country, with Dublin, Cork and Meath recording the largest inward migration of all the counties.
