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:
- 1905 N 2nd Sttax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $458K
- 1915 N 2nd Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $67K
- 1922 N 2nd Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $103K
- 1938-42 N 2nd Sttax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $104K
- 1908 N 2nd Sttax-abated new construction0.23%$957/yr on $414K
- …and 8 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 1935 N 2nd St is assessed at $1.8M but pays $9,505 a year — about 38% of the $25,181 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 +11.9% 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 $346 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block outpaced the market.
