1 Excludes exempt dwellings
2 This is the number of dwellings in each area expressed as a 'Band D equivalent'. This takes into account dwellings exempt from council tax, disabled relief and discounts. The ratio to Band D for the other bands is A 6/9; B 7/9; C 8/9; E 11/9; F 13/9; G 15/9 and H 18/9. For example, a Band A dwelling with no discounts etc contributes '2/3' to the Band D equivalent figure, while a band H dwelling contributes '2'. A band D dwelling with a single person discount contributes 0.75 (the single person discount is 25 per cent).
3 Includes council tax benefit
