I'm using household income because council tax is based on households.

Lancashire County Council: Lancashire Profile

Thats only 6 years not 10, I know, but its not easy to find this data. 52% over 6 years is good to say our council tax has increased only 45% over 9 years.
From this website it shows the average gross household income (in 2006) in Hyndburn as being under £28,000. It would be interesting to find out how many Acctwebbers have a gross income anywhere near to £28,000 (in the current financial year).

I post my households gorss income tomorrow (when I have added it all up) and give you the comparable figures for 2000.
