The average Band D council tax set by local authorities in England for 2022/23 is £1,966, up £67 or 3.5 per cent on the previous year, according to data published by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities.
This includes adult social care and parish precepts, but does not take into account the £150 council tax rebate that will be provided to households in Bands A to D by the government to help with rising energy prices.
The average 3.5 per cent rise for Band D properties in 2022/23 is below the 4.4 per cent rise in 2021/22 and is also the lowest year-on-year increase since 2016/17.
A full list of council tax levels for each local authority in England has also been published by the Government.
It shows that the average council tax for a Band D property, including parish precepts where appropriate, has fallen year on year in four local authorities – Mansfield, Selby, South Ribble and Wandsworth.
When parish precepts are excluded, Band D council tax has fallen in two local authorities – Broadland and Wandsworth.
Here is the list in full. It is ranked from highest to lowest and reads, from left to right: name of local authority, type of local authority, average Band D council tax for 2022/23 including adult social care and parish precepts where appropriate, percentage change on 2021/22.
