a year — the benchmark band every English authority is compared on.
| Band | 1991 value | A year |
|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,600 |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £1,866 |

These are Bolton's charges for 2026-27, the authority BL2 falls in — not an estimate for any individual home. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and we never guess it; look up a band on GOV.UK and read your row. Bands reflect what a home was worth on 1 April 1991, not today.

Deprivation (IMD)
Area profile for BL2
Across the 12 sampled BL2 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 2 to decile 10, with a median of decile 6 of 10 — where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
BL2 5QU, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 6 of 10 — where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. It's area context for the wider neighbourhood, not a judgement on any individual home.
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so BL2 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in BL2 that have recorded sales and 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home.

What it costs to run a home in BL2, band by band
Bolton's council tax for 2026-27 set against the BL2 median sold price of £195,000 across 250 recorded sales — the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearBolton | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £195,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,600 | £133 | 0.82% |

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the BL2 median sold price — a comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.
