Question on Council Tax Help please

I checked on council tax for an apartment wich falls on band A, and it´s about 55-60 pounds..my question is is this what I have to pay anually? 60 pounds or these 60 pounds are monthly?

That would be £60 a month. I am not sure if this is true for every council but we pay 10 months out of the year with a two month break.

£60 per annum?!   Don't we wish!

Hey, I wanna live there! When we moved last month we thought we were getting such a great deal (bigger house, cheaper rent) until we got our council tax bill!

Well, you could try moving to the Irish Republic.  They scrapped the old "rates" (local taxes) for most homes way back in the 1970s, leaving a property tax only for expensive homes where the owner also had a high income.   Even that has gone now though -- Apparently the Irish supreme court declared the tax unconstitutional a few years ago, so there are no rates/council tax/property tax there at all now.  You just have to pay for refuse collection.

Or try the London Borough of Wandsworth...SERIOUSLY low council tax, and a nice place too.

Yeah, I thought about Wandsworth but I have clients that live there so not possible for me.  :\\\'(
