Data has been released by the Dept. of Housing.

208 are vacant in Kildare.

That's according to data released by the Dept. of Housing, up to May 24th, as reported by members of the public and various organisations on the vacant homes website.

In Leinster, the number of vacant homes in this county is exceeded only by Dublin City Council and South Dublin County Council.

Housing Minister, Darragh O'Brien, says "provides a central portal for individuals to anonymously log possible vacant properties and alert local authorities to those properties. As appropriate, Vacant Homes Officers can then follow up with the owners to see whether the house can be re-used quickly. The latest statistics from vacanthomes.ie indicate that 5,210 properties have been recorded on the website since 2017."

The table below provides details of properties recorded on the vacant homes website on as at 24 May.
