1. Occupied dwellings are the total number of dwellings, minus vacant dwellings and second homes.
2. Vacant dwellings include unoccupied dwellings that are exempt from Council Tax, and dwellings subject to a long-term empty property discount.
3. Second homes include dwellings subject to second home discount (including holiday homes and self-catering accommodation available to let for less than 140 days per year).
4. Dwellings with a single adult discount include dwellings subject to a discount of 25%. This may include, for example, dwellings with a single adult, or one adult living with one or more children, or adults who are 'disregarded' for Council Tax purposes.
5. Dwellings with 'occupied exemptions' include dwellings which are occupied but exempt from Council Tax. This mainly comprises dwellings only occupied by students, and armed forces accommodation. It also includes dwellings which are the sole residence only of people aged under 18 or severely mentally impaired persons, trial flats used by registered housing associations, and prisons.
6. Clackmannanshire and Renfrewshire cannot separately identify vacant dwellings and second homes, as they receive the same Council Tax discount. Therefore, the total figures have been included under 'vacant dwellings'.
