The makeup of the block
Every home, plotted by size and assessed value — press play and watch the block reprice from 2016 to 2027. One bubble per house (area = lot size), colored by who owns it; a gold ring marks a material assessment exemption whose legal basis is not established by the roll. Click a bubble for its report.

Who really pays
Philadelphia's 1.3998% rate applies to the taxable assessment. The OPA roll shows exemptions that can make an estimate lower than the full assessed-value scenario; this chart does not identify their legal basis.
No fetched home has an estimate below 90% of the full assessment rate. That is not a finding about every possible exemption.
The block as an asset
Read like a financial asset, this block has lagged the Philadelphia market, compounding +5% 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 $171 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). Informational only, not investment advice.
