How we calculate this rank & percentile
We compare every UK billing authority with a published 2026-27 Band D rate (350 in total). Rank is one plus the number with a higher charge, so equal charges share a rank. Percentile is round(authorities with a lower charge ÷ 350 × 100). The UK average is the simple mean of every council's Band D rate in our coverage set. Because the rank spans all three nations, it compares what each authority charges, not what each charge buys. Scotland sets its own 1991 valuation thresholds, and the band E to H multipliers were raised in April 2017, so Scottish upper-band charges are a higher multiple of Band D than the English ratios produce. Scottish bills also arrive alongside water and sewerage charges that this figure excludes. See our methodology page for the full source-to-figure lineage.

Derived position reading
What the Angus Band D figure shows
The published Band D charge of £1,598.65 places Angus 340th out of 350 UK billing authorities when ordered from the highest charge down. That position is derived from the full authority table, rather than from a single quoted comparison. It is 31.6% below the simple UK average of £2,337.00, while the percentile shows that 3% of the recorded authorities have a lower Band D charge.
The more useful local comparison is Scotland. Here, Angus ranks 26th among 32 billing authorities, against a regional average of £1,662.00. The table of nearby authorities therefore compares published charges in the same geography, not property values or the level of service a household receives. Equal Band D charges share a position, so the ranking does not invent a difference where the underlying values match.
Band D is a statutory reference point, not a bill for every household. Charges for the other bands are calculated from the applicable national ratios, and discounts or exemptions can change an individual bill. This page is best used to understand the current published schedule and how this authority sits within the recorded 2026-27 council-tax corpus.

Council Tax charges shown on this page are derived from the published Scotland Band D dataset and statutory Scotland band ratios. They are intended as informational guidance, not as a personalised tax statement or legal advice. Your actual bill depends on your property's assigned band and on any discounts or exemptions that apply to your household.

For a binding figure consult your Angus Council Tax bill or the official gov.uk Council Tax service. Figures published in 2026 reflect the 2026/2027 financial year only.
