MHCLG · 361 councils compared over one year

Is outstanding council borrowing in my area changing faster than in the country?

Each council’s own change in outstanding council borrowing beside the national change over the same span, classified by a fixed tolerance. Faster means further in the national direction; it is not a score.

Nationally, outstanding council borrowing rose from £147.9bn in 2025 Q2 to £154.2bn in 2026 Q2, up 4.3% (£6.3bn). Of 361 councils, 129 moved faster, 19 moved in line, 55 moved more slowly, 127 moved the opposite way, 31 could not be compared.

How the relation is decided

Each council’s change is its latest published figure against its figure exactly one year earlier by period end. The national change is the national series’ own two figures. The gap is the council’s change minus the national change, in points of percent change. Two changes are in line when the gap is within a quarter of the national change’s size, with a floor of one point (here ±1.1). Beyond that, a council that rose faster than the national figure when its change is larger in the same direction, more slowly when smaller, and opposite when the signs differ. A council with no figure at the earlier date is not comparable, never unchanged.

Outstanding council borrowing: nationally rose from £147.9bn in 2025 Q2 to £154.2bn in 2026 Q2, up 4.3% (£6.3bn); 129 of 361 councils moved faster, 127 the opposite way.
