Definition and caveats

The average council tax set for a Band D dwelling across England for the financial year, including the adult social care precept and parish precepts.

Doesn’t measure: What most households pay: dwellings in bands A to C pay less, discounts and council tax support reduce bills, and Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland set their own systems.
