England's Local Government

England's local government is organized into various councils that manage local services and issues. These include county councils, district or borough councils, and unitary authorities, each responsible for specific areas like education, transportation, housing, and waste collection. County councils oversee broader services across larger regions, while district councils handle local matters. Some areas have a single-tier system called unitary authorities, combining responsibilities. Local councils are elected by residents, ensuring community needs are represented. This layered system allows for tailored management of local services, balancing regional coordination with community-specific decision-making.
