What this measures

Dwellings on the Council Tax valuation lists as at 31 March, split by band A to H (and band I in Wales, whose list has run from A to I since 1 April 2005). The band reflects the dwelling's value at the list's valuation date — 1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales — not its value today, and it fixes what each household pays as a ratio of the Band D charge.

Current property values or sale prices. Bands are only revised on specific events (a sale after alterations, a successful challenge), so an area's band mix moves slowly even where prices have not. Counts of one to four dwellings in a band are suppressed.
