According to MHCLG, Council Tax levels set by local authorities in England 2026-27, Redbridge's Band D Council Tax is £2,294.58 for 2026-27 (NEAR), the 258th highest of 350 UK billing authorities (higher than 26% of them) and 2% below the UK average of £2,337.00.
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. See our methodology page for the full source-to-figure lineage.

Derived position reading
What the Redbridge Band D figure shows
The published Band D charge of £2,294.58 places Redbridge 258th 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 1.8% below the simple UK average of £2,337.00, while the percentile shows that 26% of the recorded authorities have a lower Band D charge.
The more useful local comparison is London. Here, Redbridge ranks 10th among 33 billing authorities, against a regional average of £2,090.00. 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.

Closest housing-stock shape: Enfield
Enfield is the closest full-distribution match for Redbridge. The profiles are close rather than identical: 5.7% 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 B: Redbridge has 13.1% of dwellings there, against 9.7% in Enfield. That extra lower-band weight pulls its stock profile away from the peer.
- A smaller distinction is an upper-band difference at Band G. Enfield records 4.7% of dwellings there, compared with 3.1% in Redbridge, so the peer carries more of its stock at that higher rung.
- A smaller distinction sits at lower Band A, where Enfield holds 4.2% of its stock and Redbridge holds 2.6%. The peer is more bottom-weighted at this rung of the valuation list.
- A smaller distinction sits at lower Band C, where Enfield holds 27.4% of its stock and Redbridge holds 25.8%. The peer is more bottom-weighted at this rung of the valuation list.

Property-stock source, rounding and weighting notes
Property counts: VOA, Council Tax: stock of properties 2025 (Table CTSOP1.0_SUP, as at 9 September 2025), Open Government Licence v3.0. 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.
