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:
- 1904 S 29th Sttax-abated new construction0.66%$1,634/yr on $249K
- 1902 S 29th Stexemption0.77%$1,734/yr on $224K
- 1942 S 29th Stexemption0.77%$1,734/yr on $224K
- 1907 S 29th Stexemption0.78%$1,786/yr on $228K
- 1909 S 29th Stexemption0.79%$1,804/yr on $229K
- …and 21 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 1904 S 29th St is assessed at $249K but pays $1,634 a year — about 47% of the $3,487 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 lagged the Philadelphia market, compounding +5.6% 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 $182 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block trailed 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.
