About CSO's Data Portal

Data.cso.ie is the CSO's statistical database and open data portal, powered by PxStat. It is the main source of official statistics published by the Central Statistics Office.

It combines a broad collection of datasets from public sector organisations into a single, user-friendly platform.

PxStat Features

  • extensive search facility with filtering of results
  • pivot and explore data through customised selections
  • export results to different formats
  • plot interactive charts
  • visualise data over interactive geo-maps
