Who really pays
Philadelphia charges every home the same 1.40% of its assessed value. Abatements and exemptions shrink what some homes are taxed on — here's this block:
- 1227 N 54th Stexemption0.31%$398/yr on $128K
- 1228 N 54th Stexemption0.36%$489/yr on $135K
- 1220 N 54th Stexemption0.36%$490/yr on $135K
- 1230 N 54th Stexemption0.36%$490/yr on $135K
- 1222 N 54th Stexemption0.36%$491/yr on $135K
- …and 12 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 1225 N 54th St is assessed at $266K but pays $2,255 a year — about 61% of the $3,718 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 beaten the Philadelphia market, compounding +8.8% 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 $253 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block outpaced the market.
