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:
- 1508 S Cleveland Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $110K
- 1509 S Cleveland Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $115K
- 1532 S Cleveland Sttax-abated new construction0.15%$281/yr on $189K
- 1539 S Cleveland Sttax-abated new construction0.28%$1,373/yr on $491K
- 1512 S Cleveland Sttax-abated new construction0.28%$1,384/yr on $494K
- …and 12 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 1510 S Cleveland St is assessed at $535K but pays $2,447 a year — about 33% of the $7,492 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 +9.2% 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 $263 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block outpaced the market.
