These are City of London's charges for 2026-27, the authority EC3A 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 EC3A
Across the 10 sampled EC3A postcodes, deprivation runs decile 5 to decile 8, with a median of decile 8 of 10 — where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
EC3A 7AB, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 8 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 EC3A spans several. We sampled 10 postcodes in EC3A that have recorded sales and 10 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home.

What it costs to run a home in EC3A, band by band
City of London's council tax for 2026-27 set against the EC3A median sold price of £1,700,000 across 105 recorded sales — the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the EC3A 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.
