Council tax bills rise by 5% for third year in a row as cost pressures bite

Government figures show variations in average annual council tax increases across different types of councils.



Council tax bills in England will rise by an average of 5% for the third consecutive year in 2025-26, with the average Band D bill reaching £2,280. Most councils are increasing bills to the maximum permitted to cover cost pressures and rising demand for services. There are variations across council types, with London boroughs seeing the lowest increases and metropolitan areas the highest. The overall council requirement has risen significantly since 2021-22.
