Frequently Asked Questions
How Many Homes Are There in Cheltenham?
- 57,550 homes were on the council tax list in 2025.
What Is the Council Tax Stock?
- A yearly count of every home on the council tax valuation list. It counts homes, not sales or prices.
Why Doesn't It Match Housing Supply?
- They are different measures from different sources. The stock is a total headcount at one date each year, while housing supply counts the change over a financial year, so the two rarely line up exactly.
