• $728K typical home, up +87% since 2016

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:

• 1621 Bainbridge Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$586/yr on $419K
• 1621 Bainbridge Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$1,019/yr on $728K
• 1621 Bainbridge Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$733/yr on $524K
• 1621 Bainbridge Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$755/yr on $539K
• 1621 Bainbridge Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$1,063/yr on $759K
• …and 16 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart

The starkest example: 1619 Bainbridge St is assessed at $1.4M but pays $3,817 a year — about 20% of the $19,085 it would owe at the full rate, because its new-construction value is abated for 10 years.

The block as an asset
