New figures published by the Department Of Housing show 48 people in Wicklow were among 13,318 registered as homeless over Christmas.
The figure includes 3,962 children.
The total was a slight decrease on November's total as a number of people who live in emergency accommodation stay with family or friends over Christmas.
The figure of 13,318 is 14% higher than Christmas 2022.
In Dublin, the issue is most severe where there are 6,754 homeless adults and 3,020 children growing up in B&Bs and hotels.
The state's total does not include refugees, asylum seekers, women in refuge centres, rough sleepers or the so-called hidden homeless.
