This release includes details of number of properties by Council Tax band at various geographic levels:

The counts are calculated from domestic property data for England and Wales extracted from the Valuation Office Agency’s (VOA) administrative database on 31 March 2018 (Table CTSOP1.0) and 10 September 2018 (Table CTSOP1.0_SUPP).
The VOA is reviewing all aspects of its Official Statistics publications to ensure that they meet users’ needs and may reduce the scope of tables in some publications while we consult. As a consequence, this release does not include the following: tables showing number of properties by Council Tax band at Westminster parliamentary constituency level; and lower and middle layer super output areas; breakdowns by property type (including bedroom count); and build period. Users are invited to provide feedback and views on these tables, including their use and relevance, to the address below.
