| Comment | The suburbs around Glasgow (think Bearsden/Milngavie, Newton Mearns, etc.) are outwith the city boundaries. Council tax is significantly lower in these neighbouring local authorities. But the residents tend to make use of Glasgow services (roads, parks, leisure, etc.) hence the net drain on Glasgow coffers.
I moved from a tenement flat in Glasgow to a detached house outwith the city. Doubled the floorspace, added a garden. Council tax bill actually went down. |
