By the Numbers
How fast it's moving
Assessed-value change for the typical home. Philadelphia taxes a flat 1.3998% of value, so the bill moves with it.

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:
- 1266 S 28th Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $101K
- 1268 S 28th Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $101K
- 1253 S 28th Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$444/yr on $318K
- 1253 S 28th Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$521/yr on $373K
- 1235 S 28th Sttax-abated new construction0.16%$340/yr on $211K
- …and 14 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 1258 S 28th St is assessed at $428K but pays $1,198 a year — about 20% of the $5,988 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 +9.9% 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 $282 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block outpaced 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.
