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. English bands rest on 1991 property values in eight bands, A to H, while Scotland uses its own 1991 thresholds and Wales revalued to 2003 values with a ninth band. An English Band D home is therefore not the same property profile as a Welsh or Scottish one. Nearest published Band D rates sit with Castle Point, Mid Suffolk, South Staffordshire, Manchester, then Wrexham, Boston. See our methodology page for the full source-to-figure lineage.

Source: MHCLG, Council Tax levels set by local authorities in England 2026-27 (area Band D) + statutory England band ratios documented in our methodology. Monthly figure is the annual charge / 10 (most councils use 10 monthly instalments). The sole-occupant column applies the statutory 25% single-person discount, payable when only one adult lives in the property.
What Haringey's 114,890 properties actually pay
Haringey's housing stock peaks below the reference point, in Band C, which covers 36,240 of 114,890 dwellings (31.5%). A Band C home is charged at eight-ninths of the Band D rate, which is why the typical bill here lands under the headline figure. Bands C and D between them account for 56.5% of the stock. 55.1% of dwellings on the England valuation list here are banded below D.
Weighting each band's statutory charge by the number of properties in it gives a stock-weighted average of £2,275.90 per dwelling, £37.88 (1.6%) below the £2,313.78 Band D headline, because most of the stock sits in bands charged at less than the Band D rate. On that measure Haringey is 141st of 318 authorities with published stock counts, against a £2,269.00 average. That places Haringey 15th of the 33 billing authorities in London, above the regional median of £2,261.38.
How to read this stock pattern
Haringey's largest property group sits in the lower half of the valuation ladder rather than at the Band D reference used in national tables. Its modal Band C charge is eight-ninths of the Band D rate, and 55.1% of the published stock lies below D. The headline alone does not show how often each band occurs. The stock-weighted amount applies the full distribution for an area-level comparison, while remaining an average rather than a household quotation.
This is a two-band centre rather than a single-band market. Bands C and D together contain 56.5% of dwellings, so neither band should be presented as a complete account of the area. The stock-weighted result combines both groups and the smaller tails into one comparable measure. The table shows where that mean comes from and prevents the distribution being flattened into an overconfident "typical property" claim.
Haringey occupies the middle half of the London stock-weighted distribution, above its £2,261.38 median. The regional result gives more context than a UK-wide rank without turning the difference into a superlative. It also shows that the council's band mix, not only its published Band D rate, determines where it sits among nearby authorities. The remaining distance from the median is an area-level comparison rather than a household saving or premium.
Closest housing-stock shape: Oxford
Oxford is the closest full-distribution match for Haringey. The profiles are close rather than identical: 3.9% of dwellings would need to shift between valuation bands for their published shares to align. The comparison therefore tests the whole ladder, not just the largest band.
Four largest band differences
- The largest separation is lower on the ladder at Band A: Haringey has 6.7% of dwellings there, against 4.7% in Oxford. That extra lower-band weight pulls its stock profile away from the peer.
- A smaller distinction is an upper-band difference at Band E. Oxford records 12.1% of dwellings there, compared with 10.2% in Haringey, so the peer carries more of its stock at that higher rung.
- A smaller distinction is lower on the ladder at Band B: Haringey has 16.9% of dwellings there, against 15.5% in Oxford. That extra lower-band weight pulls its stock profile away from the peer.
- A smaller distinction is an upper-band difference at Band G. Oxford records 5.3% of dwellings there, compared with 4.2% in Haringey, so the peer carries more of its stock at that higher rung.
How the wider profile compares
Haringey has the stronger combined lower-band tilt: Bands A to C account for 3.9% more of its stock than they do in Oxford. The nearest match still leaves that bottom-of-ladder difference visible.
Oxford carries the heavier upper tail across Bands E and above, exceeding Haringey's combined share there by 3.4%. Total-variation distance counts those absolute band gaps without assuming they offset the lower-band pattern.
Both profiles peak in Band C, so the peer match agrees on the most common valuation group as well as the full-distribution distance. The band-by-band gaps above show why a shared mode does not make the profiles interchangeable.
Band F is the most stable point in the comparison, with shares of 4.8% and 4.9%. Reading that near-match beside the largest gaps prevents the peer label from hiding where the two published distributions actually agree.

Counts are published rounded to the nearest 10, so shares are approximate and may not sum to exactly 100%. The stock-weighted average is our calculation: each band's 2026/2027 charge multiplied by its property count, divided by the total. It is a mean across the whole stock, not a bill any individual household receives.
