How much is Council Band B in your area?
I'm sure North East Lincolnshire aren't the highest but I also wonder why parts of London are so low?
May I ask what council tax B was for 2020/2021 where you live?

I expect much of it is because of fewer public services actually being needed vs. those who can afford to pay the tax. Also economies of scale may come into it - some things are going to be cheaper to provide in a compact urban area rather than somewhere with large rural hinterland.socks_uk said:I also wonder why parts of London are so low?1 -

£1028.90 here in N Scotland but they do screw us over with higher multipliers on band E and above to keep the lower bands cheaper.
Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.
Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

I can't imagine there were many properties in Westminster valued at £40,001 to £52,000 even in 1991
