What it's worth, and where taxes are going

• $522K typical home, up +93% since 2016
• Tax bill $3,770 to $7,011 a year, +6%/yr and compounding
• Whole block: $29M assessed, $355,066/yr to the city, about $6,575 per home

Who really pays — each home's tax bill as a share of its value

Philadelphia charges every home the same 1.40% of its assessed value. On this block, 35 of 54 homes pay that full rate — and 19 pay less, because abatements and exemptions shrink the taxed value. Each dot is one home; the further left, the less of its value it pays. Hover a dot for the house.

The starkest example: 125 Sumac St is assessed at $917K but pays $7,869 a year — about 61% of the $12,836 it would owe at the full rate, because its new-construction value is abated for 10 years.

The block as an asset

Read like a financial asset, this block has tracked the Philadelphia market, compounding +6.2% a year against the city's 6.5%.

Indexed performance · this block vs. the Philadelphia market

Rebased to 100 in 2016, like a stock against its index. $100 in the typical home here would be worth $193 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block trailed the market.

Return is from assessed-value history (a proxy for market price, lumpy in reassessment years); rental yield is estimated from ACS area rents. Informational only, not investment advice.
