Council Tax is a local government tax in the UK based on the estimated value of your property in 1991 (for England and Scotland) or 2003 (for Wales), assigned to one of 8 bands (A–H). It funds local services including rubbish collection, roads, and social care. Each local council sets its own rate, so amounts vary considerably.
