A person may qualify for single resident discount, if they are the only adult aged 18 or over living in the property as their sole or main residence.
A full Council Tax bill is based on at least 2 adults living in a home. Adults are those aged 18 or over. You get 25% off your bill if you live on your own, or you live with someone who is not counted ('disregarded') for the purposes of Council Tax.
For example, a single parent with no children over the age of 18 would receive 25% off their Council Tax bill. You do not pay more if you have more than 2 adults living there.
